The Landing Net                             by Darl Black

Given the early ice out, we have been expecting an improvement in
the weather for two months. But it only happens for a day or two,
then back to northeast winds, gray skies and rain showers. However,
it’s the first week in May. Things have got to start warming up and
drying out a bit. Then maybe, we can say the full spring bite is here!
In the meantime, check out proposed crappie regulations for
Pymatuning (page 9); Jeff Knapp’s river smallmouth tip on spinner-
baits (page 10) and don’t forget the Crappie Fishing Seminar on May
19th (page 11)
