    Great spot for bass, lots of frogs, crawfish, and sunfish to chase. Although its a great a bass spot, you can find very large sunfish here as well. Overall its just ...more a very strong and healthy ecosystem.

      But regardless of whether your fishing my spot or not, Pymatuning Lake has plenty of weedbeds and other thick cover scattered everywhere throughout the lake but ...more sometimes it can take some digging to find some cover.

      I haven't been up there in a while but I remember that there often within 10 feet of the bank and are usually either rooted into the muck or floating. This spot ...more is in a small cove area near Beach #2, this spot is within a mile or two of Richter's Bait and Tackle. As I said earlier, I haven't visited the spot in a long time.

About

I am a weekend angler who loves to fish. I've been fishing since I could remember, and go as often as possible. Although my equipment isn't as ...more advanced as I'd like, I still use it to the best of my ability and often expirementing with new retrieves. I've lived in Jamestown, PA until I was about 10 then moved to Coraopolis, PA. Because of this move I don't fish as much but still enjoy the chance to hook into a big one when I can.
