Patty @ Poff’s Place; filed 1-16: Anglers were doing pretty good on crappies and walleyes be-
fore the thaw. Walleyes were coming from south of causeway. Ice cover is sketchy in some are-
as since the thaw & refreeze. It may firm up better by Friday, but then warmer temps and rain
are expected.

- 1-7: There is good ice at Pymie. Most of lake is 7 to 8 inches. Walleyes are slow. Got 8 in
two days, but spent a lot of time on ice. Very Cold!!! The 10 pound Gamma Fluorocarbon

I won works great for ice fishing but not so good when casting during fall cold water. Go-
ing to Shenango for crappies today and back to Pymie on Tuesday.
- 1-9: Today’s catch on Pymie was solid. Barry Rose, Chuck Sari and I all got our limit. The
ones I kept were between 20 and 25 inches. Great Day! Ice is nine inches thick at Snod-
grass.
- 1-15: I just got off the ice at Pymie.

Ice is 9 to 10 inches most every-
where. I did drill one hole that was
only 5 inches way out in the lake. Be
careful! Most people did very well
last week on walleye before the thaw.
Our group limited out last Tuesday
and Wednesday. I talked to a couple
guys who did well until Saturday. I
went out Sunday and today, trying Yes Virginia, there are walleyes in Pymatuning! Rich Sari and

numerous honey holes – did not friends display three limits of walleye from Jan 9th.
touch a fish. These spots produced well only last week. The fish either moved or got lock-
jaw with the cold front.

Sugar Lake & Woodcock Lake
Tabitha @ Myers Sportsman’s Connection; filed 1-16: Prior to the thaw, our customers had
been fishing Sugar Lake and Woodcock Lake. Sugar may still be safe; but as a flood control lake,
Woodcock is no longer safe with the influx of runoff. My husband and son had a successful trip
to PIB the other day!

Canadohta Lake
Jerry @ Timberland Bait; filed 1-16: There is 10 inches of ice on Canadohta; they are catching

some crappies. Customers tell me there is 5 inches of ice on Sugar Lake and they are catching
some pike. Union City Dam is another hotspot if you want to walk back the road to the lake.
