MAD Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 Just wondering how many southwestern pa fisherman/women are on the board. I am near the PGH Airport anyone having any luck locally? Mike Quote
Chavelka Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 I am also by the airport and fish alot of local ponds and have been doing real well on buzz baits and culprit red shad worms. Quote
MAD Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 Good to hear from you. Ever fish Raccoon? That is probably my main lake. Glad to hear you are doing well fishing. Glad to see someone from the area on the site. Good luck the rest of the season and welcome to the site. Mike Quote
Chavelka Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 I have fished raccoon also densmore dam is a nice spot a lot of 4 and five pounders. Have you ever seen a Muskie come out of their people say they have them but I have never seen one Quote
MAD Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 Never heard of Densmore d**n. I caught a 42" muskie out of Raccoon a few years ago. Haven't seen any muskie action the last two or three years. Where is Densmore d**n? Mike Quote
Chavelka Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 It is right behind the pepsi cola road house if you know were that is Quote
MAD Posted August 21, 2011 Author Posted August 21, 2011 I've heard people talk about it, but never heard it named. Is it open to the public to fish? Mike Quote
Chavelka Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 I think you are thinking of star lake that is buy first niagra pavilion. That is private the road house is down the road about a quarter mile and is open to the public. Quote
MAD Posted August 21, 2011 Author Posted August 21, 2011 Thanks for the info, I may have to give it a shot this week. Hopefully, I can get a free evening after work this week. Do you fish any of the rivers in the area? I hear Chartiers Creek is pretty good for smallies, but another water that I haven't fished. Mike Quote
Chavelka Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 I usually just fish local lakes and ponds but if you need some ideas or want to try something different let me know. I know were their are some hidden gems. Quote
MAD Posted August 22, 2011 Author Posted August 22, 2011 Sounds good, wouldn't mind hitting some new water. Let me know what days are best for you and I will check with the Boss. Work during the day so it will have to be in the evening. Of course weekends are open. Mike Quote
BassinMikeIT Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 im out in the eastern suburbs of pgh. never fished racoon, but lake arthur is the place to go. thats the only place other than erie that i fish in this state. Quote
MAD Posted September 15, 2011 Author Posted September 15, 2011 I'd fish Aurthur, but no boat. I am in the market for a kayak. Do you fish Arthur with or without a boat? Mike Quote
BassinMikeIT Posted September 15, 2011 Posted September 15, 2011 with boat. you get that kayak, let me know. be glad to give you some holes. mjp2010@comcast.net Quote
MAD Posted September 16, 2011 Author Posted September 16, 2011 I'm working on it. Thank you for the offer, I will keep you in mind. Mike Quote
MSAJAA Posted September 17, 2011 Posted September 17, 2011 I live between Freeport and Kittanning. I fish all over the western side of the state but the Allegheny River and Crooked Creek are my "home water". Quote
Eriewormer Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I grew up around Butler/New Castle area and been years since I have fished Lake Arthur (live in Erie now). Would it be ok if I emailed ya, just would like to know best area's to put in and such? Quote
