Notes

Now that I look at the picture i have of what i thought were rock bass, I think they are crappie. Just not real familiar with crappie and especially that small. I'll keep an eye out for more like that and hopefully bigger ones. These were caught on a plastic bobber with meal worm below surface about 2 feet deep. This was my first time fishing in the Pittsburgh area and the first in about 4 years. What a great feeling. Can't wait to get back out there!!! Another fisherman said he had cuaght 4 nice catfish this morning with minnows on the bottom. I NEED SOME MINNOWS. Note: I saw a beaver and had what I think was a small snapping turtle playing tag with my bobber.
