New Waters in PA

[PlasticMan]

Hey all, I will be moving down into Montgomery County, PA. I need to find some new bass waters to fish. For those of you that live and fish down there, what are my choices of places to fish.

Thanks for in advance.

nockamixon dam up in bucks county is a fun lake to fish   havent fished it in years though

Yeah, I have fished there before. It can be fun. I have spent the past 8 years learning and finding the places up here, now, when I am starting to really discovery the secret spots, my family will be moving. It will take me another 5 years or so to scout.

Anything you all got would be great.

These are pretty good sources to find new waters.

Marsh Creek Park in Chester Co. is one of the most popular Bass lakes. It is electric motor only as is most of the better places. Nockamixon is 20Hp max and Blue Marsh near Reading is unlimited HP.

French Creek State Park near Birdsboro has 2 small lakes. 1 is were the State Record Smallmouth was caught, but we usually go to the lower Hopewell Lake which is bigger. I think it is only 68 acres, but it has boat rental.

Montco has Green Lane Reservoir which has 2 lakes also, but you must quarantine your boat for 10 days unless you rent one. Deep Creek in the lower end only allows unmotored boats, but I think is better for shore fishing.

Lake Galena is near Nockamixon and is also good for many species besides bass. Chambers Lake and Struble are also good bass places and are in lower Chester Co.

Welcome to Montco. Where about will you be moving to?

Well, I do not want to get ahead of myself, but if everything goes according to plan, it will be in the East Coventry area. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Thanks for the help everyone. I will have to go and do some searching.
