anyone know of places to fish around monroeville-north huntingdon-greensburg area. lakes or streams???
twin lakes, keystone lake at the dam off of the handicap area, loyalhanna creek at the kingston dam, how many more do you want
http://www.fish.state.pa.us/PA_Exec/Fish_Boat/stocking/counties/west.htm i know where twin lakes is. the others i’d have to mapquest. that’s the stocking list, which places are best. the first couple times i’ll have my wife or brother so i’d like to catch something to keep them quiet :blah:
what you fishing for?
i’ve been thinking of fishing all weekend :blue:
even my girlfriend wants to go, which im amazed…
i just dont know if any fish will be biting in low 50 degree weather
man I haven’t been to keystone in years, atleast 10
Still to early for me to be fishing lakes but I’ll probably give trout fishing a go easter weekend.
whatever will bite 
trout mostly, but bass are fun. hell, if i don’t catch any i’ll just want to catch some crappe
We have a twenty foot bass boat on the Yough Lake, but if often comes back to Pittsburgh for river fishing, I’ve been looking for someone to go with me, anyone?
i grew up in uniontown, i’d go up there like once a week a couple summers. good times
go fish of the handicap dock at keystone lake in new alexandria. take a few different flavors(green,cheese, etc) of power bait, some maggots a meal worms. and a few slip sinkers and big wooden bobbers. set up both poles with two hooks about 16 inches apart. put the slip sinker at the end of one a fish the bottom with power bait. put a wooden bobber on the other about 2-3ft up. and alternate the baits till you find what they are eating. the wooden bober is used to get the damn thing out far.
i limit out on trout there 99% of the time.
i went yesterday morning and this morning, to one of the powerplants warmwater discharges along the mon in Elrama which is across the river from elizabeth. me and my dad caught about 30 smallmouth and spotted bass this weekend i had one that was about 17 inches which is good for the rivers. today some other guys were fishing down from us and all of sudden his drag just start going like nonstop,like i thought he was gonna get spooled cuz he wasnt stopping at all. he was fighting it for 10 min then the fish got off. i would say it was a hybrid striped bass since thats how they fight (20x time stronger than smallmouth). we were all catching them on shiners i caught a few on a rapala very early in the morning but it seemed as the day went on the fish got less active and didnt wanna chase anything. fished probably for 3-4 hours each day
for those who dont know thats a hybrid striper caught last fall by my dad. its the smallest one we caught but its the best picture of one (disposables suck) its a cross between white bass and a saltwater striped bass, fish comission stocks about 120,000 each year across the state. BY FAR, my favorite fish to catch.
Ive got my own bass boat not quite that big though
what make and year? I wanna get mine down on the yough res this year
for BIG fish like carp and catfish i normally go out that stadium out in mon city. from 10pm till 4am you catch HUGE carp ,catfish, sheephead, striper, and quite a few small and largemought bass around the ledge.
but the biggest bass i ever seen caught in person was caught by my little cousin when i took her one year… on a damn snoopy pole too
i could fit my fist into its mouth… it was just under 13lb’s :eek4:
Its an old 1992 Shadow bass boat that is no longer made, and my father and I still rock the old Suzuki 150hp. Boat still flys at about 75mph topped out, so shes got life left in her.
:bsflag:
a 13lb largemouth would have been a new state record
and you can fit your fist into a 5 pounders mouth
nice, that’s fast as hell on the water
I’m rockin a 18hp nissian on mine, tops out at 20mph on a 17’ alum
mamouth park is close.
directly behond my garage in west newton.
smithton itself u can fish.
hey im guessing weight lol
im not sure how many lbs it was… all i know was it was heavy and huge… just look at the pic
hahaha 
my dad is a professional outdoors writer for a bunch of state magazines and used to/is getting back into professional guiding on all the local lakes/rivers. I could probably ask him where the hot spots are. :dunno:
