The Landing Net
With heavy rain last week, the past weekend was a blow out on French Creek, Allegheny River and the Lake Erie tributaries. Even the lakes were wind swept and difficult to fish. But when things settle over the next few days, we will discover the water temperature is finally down into the 50s and gamefish are in a positive fall feeding mode. We still have the month of November and some of December to enjoy a fantastic open-water bite for your favorite species. Normally we don’t have safe ice until January, but there is speculation that snow may come early to NW PA this year. Enjoy the fall now – Go Fish! … Darl Black
