River Report -- February 22 Excellent action on quality-sized walleyes on the middle Allegheny the last two days. Lots of fish in the 17 to 25 inch range. Still about three weeks left before walleye season ends in mid March!

River Report -- Jan 8 Regular client Patrick B. was joined by his son Reid (sp?) for an afternoon trip on the lower Allegheny that proved to be quite interesting. Walleye's were finicky, but we boated a decent amount. Largest was 25 inches but the rest were small. Also lost a fish that was likely a huge walleye. Had a 40 inch musky to the net. And got pelted with 1/2 diameter hail just as we got to the ramp.

River Report -- January 7
With the level on the middle Allegheny finally dropping down to a reasonable level my buddy Sid and I did a scouting trip. After a delay due to freezing rain and icy roads we got on the water around 11. A very productive afternoon with a bunch of nice walleyes in the 16 to 21 inch range.

River Report -- Jan 5 Randy E. and his son Jeremy made a 3.5 hour trek from Lancaster and put in a full day on the lower Allegheny. We had to work a bit harder for bites today, but they boated a bunch, and ended the day with this 27 inch, 8.6 pounder. Everything on jig-n-minnow today.

Fishing Update -- January 2 It's been walleye, walleye, walleye the past month or son. We're catching good numbers of 'eyes on the lower (navigable) Allegheny River. Lots of little ones, but a fair number of eatin'-sized keepers. And we've gotten some monsters this fall as well. Most of our trips have been four and six hour outings, ending at dark. But I can do full day trips as well, providing the morning isn't too cold. Remember to "like" my Facebook page, where I post fishing updates after nearly all trips.

Fishing Update -- Nov 11 Please forgive the absence of fishing updates on this page. Fall fishing on the middle Allegheny has been good when the river has been in decent shape. Lots of smallies, plenty of big ones, and some good walleyes as well. When the river has been too high to fish, as it has been the past two weeks, we've been catching some big smallies on Keystone Power Dam. For more frequent fishing updates, "like" my Kesytone Connection Guide Service Facebook page, as I issue reports after nearly all trips.

River Update -- August 28 Action on the Allegheny continues to be good. Getting good numbers of smallmouth bass up to 20 inches as well as some bonus walleyes. I expect summer patterns to continue for another month to six weeks. So if you're looking to fish for smallmouth bass in shallow, moving water, there's still plenty of time for a trip.

River Update Aug 8 The river is low, clear and warm (as of Aug 8). The bass are there to be caught, but we've had to work for them. Today's trip put two dozen in the boat and a bunch of other lost. Getting them on Rapala X-Raps, flukes and Z-Man ShadZ.

River Update -- July 27 The Allegheny has been in summer mode for the past few weeks. Finally got down to a more typical level after a wet spring and early summer. Getting lots of bass on Rapala X-Raps and soft jerkbaits. Spinnerbaits when the river's been off color. Today's trip yielded over 40 smallies along with a couple nice walleyes. Biggest bass was over 4 pounds. Be sure to like my Facebook page, where I log updates after nearly every trip. I'll continue to provide fishing reports here as time permits.

Middle Allegheny River Update -- June 27. The river has been off color much of the past couple of weeks. We're getting some nice opens, mostly on spinnerbaits, but the numbers have been down (typical of things when the water's dirty). Spinnerbaits and flukes.

Pymatuning Walleye Report -- As of late June, we're catching some very nice walleyes on Pymatuning. Not racking up big numbers, but getting walleyes up to 25 inches. I'm only doing full day trips to Pymy. Get in touch with me if you'd like more details on available dates and such.

Keystone Report -- As of late June we're catching Keystone Power Dam bass around typical summertime locations. Getting largemouth and smallmouth too. Keystone can be challenging, but for those up to it offers nice rewards.

Pymatuning Report -- May 27 Following up on reports of a decent daytime walleye bite on Pymatuning, my friend Sid and I did a scouting trip today and put several nice walleyes in the boat. I can do a limited number of Pymatuning walleye trips provided the daytime action stays consistent. Give me a shout if you'd like to discuss details.

Fishing Update -- It's been a good though challenging last couple of weeks. River bass had moved into shallow spawning areas. We had several successful guide trips for both smallmouth and walleyes. Then heavy rains washed the river out. We switched to Keystone Lake and did well on both smallmouth and largemouth. As of today, the river's back down to a good level and we're back on the bass. Though I will continue to update fishing reports on this page, more frequent updates appear on my Facebook page. Be sure to "like" it so you see all the action!

River Update -- May 3 River trips during the past couple of days are producing smallies in and around spawning flats. Most are starting to come on soft jerkbaits. Water temp 60 degrees.

River Update -- River trips that past two days have included smallmouth bass in spawning areas. Not there in great numbers yet, but with the current warm up they should show up big-time soon. The week of May 7 should be good. As of now I still have some weekday openings. We're getting them on Z-Man TRD Tubez and Rapala jerkbaits.

River Report -- Mike and Chuck put in a full day and were rewarded with a bunch of nice smallmouth bass up to 19 inches. Rainy and windy, but Z-Man tubes and Rapala Husky Jerks did the trick. Water level normal, clear and 50 degrees. I expect smallies will be moving to spawning flats if we get the forecast warm up next week.

River Report -- April 25 With the Allegheny dropping two feet over the past two days we were back on 'em. Great day for the Horvath group from Uniontown. Lots of bass, with plenty of big ones, including two 20 inchers. A few walleyes, too. Finesse tubes, hair jigs and Rapala RipStop jerkbaits. Water temp 46. Level a little high, dropping and clearing.

Fishing Report -- April 21 Looks like the Allegheny will be back down to decent shape by Wed. In the meantime, I fished a small reservoir with a good smallmouth population. Worked out well as we boated 30 between 14-18.5 inches in a little over 4 hours. I have a limited number of open weekdays during the coming two weeks. No weekend dates until mid May.

River Report -- April 15 Another excellent outing. 60 smallmouth, nearly all between 14 and 18.5 inches. A few walleyes too. Finesse tubes and jerkbaits. Water temp 49; clear. Rain coming in tonight so that's about to change considerably.

River Report -- April 14 Great day. Lots of smallies. Lots of doubles. Lots of big brown bass in the 15-19 inch range. Tubes and suspending jerkbaits. River 49 degrees and in great shape (for now). Big rain heading this way so that will likely change.

River Report -- April 13 Looks like it's going to be one of those springs. River just getting back to nice shape after two weeks of high water. But with over two inches of rain predicted Sunday/Monday it looks like this window of opportunity will be short. We got the Allegheny Grand Slam today -- musky, northern, walleye and smallies. Biggest bass 17 inches. Husky Jerks and tubes. Water temp around 44 degrees.

River Report -- March 29 River on the rise thanks to two days of steady rain. Managed a few nice ones today on hair jigs and twister tail grubs. Looks like the river will be high and muddy for a few days. Today's water temp 41 degrees.
