I know the rivers down there aren’t the cleanest but those walleye are great eating ! I live close to the Allegheny up Oil City Franklin area and always wondered what the shore fishing would be like down there ! I’m 70 and still get around ! I might get down that way sometime and try it .

The Mon has really cleaned up over the past 30+ years. I remember fishing that same area as a teenager back in the 80's. The only things swimming there were carp and channel cats with the occasional drum tossed in for variety, and there certainly wasn't a weedline like there is now. It's good to see it has changed for the better.

Ya those weed lines are what surprised me most putting my boat in down here…..way more weeds than the lower Allegheny …lots of bait in those weeds too

I used to fish the mouth of Pigeon Creek just down from the Aquatorium, usually early mornings always good for big smallmouth and very good walleye and sauger. Used to fish off the wall at Charleroi dam as well but stopped going there because some lowlife broke into my truck stealing tools and other valuables. I heard they closed off the wall after 9/11 and always wondered if they reopened it to use again. Always did great there fishing the eddies below the dam. The Mon is a great fishery

I have been fishing the Mon the past 2 weeks at night downriver from you to Homestead. You called it in your last video, 20 minutes before sunset, and 30 -45 minutes after. At Sunset I switch from swim bait to jigs w/spinner.

Hell ya…although I noticed the bite window can shift depending on water clarity. Like if it’s really clear the bite will start later but last longer

Bro i got that dame lures.. THE BRIGHT GREEN ONE ITS A BANGER.. BASS LOVE IT.. WALLEYE LOVE IT..

Daughter and I were fishing the other side of that bridge in the park area on July 3rd... Nothing was happening. Will have to try it when it's colder.

I hate that the Mon still gets a bad rap from pollution. Water quality has improved drastically and most of the consumption advisories were removed years ago. Species that require really good water quality like the Brook Silverside have returned as well. I was there when a fisheries professor at CalU found them in 2010, and they've increased in number ever since. I'd eat walleye, sauger, perch, etc. from the Mon, no question.

I used to catch walleye on Erie. One of my favorite fish to eat. I've never fished the 3 rivers in Pittsburgh. Would you eat a Walleye out of there? I boat in the area and know the river can be gross. Curious if the fish are edible?

@absoluteunitmedia

The state recommends that 2 meals/month is fine (walleye from 3 rivers). That’s actually more than they recommend for Lake Erie walleye (1 per month)….so apparently it’s actually cleaner in the rivers these days

Scratch that…it depends on what pool, for the actual 3 rivers pool in Pittsburgh it’s 1 meal/month just like Erie files.dep.state.pa.us/Water/Drinking%20Water%20and%20Facility%20Regulation/WaterQualityPortalFiles/FishConsumption/FishAdvisory/PFBC_sumconsumption-2018.pdf

Ya everything has come down a bit for the time being….never been to Zanesville but do you hit the clearer creek mouths when the main river is high and muddy? For me there’s always walleye feeding in the creeks when it’s like that, as long as there’s enough depth for them to swim in there and the creek isn’t just as muddy as the river

I literally walk to that same spot almost every day and catch nothing. But the other side of that bridge, is where you get the fish. You can catch anything from a bluegill all the way to a tiger muskie. The only tiger Muskie caught there, I saw it with my own eyes. If you don’t believe me look on fish brain. But the point that I am saying is I have been fishing this spot for a while and I don’t catch a lot over there so if you want to catch fish, go to the other side of that blue bridge. Good luck and please acknowledge this reply. You will catch fish.

Walleye Season is closed in PA

@absoluteunitmedia

Closed seasons in PA are catch and release only. It’s not unlawful to target and catch out of season fish as long as you let them go right away. The expectation is bedding bass…you’re not allowed to cast repeatedly over visibly bedding bass…plus special regulation waters like stocked trout streams etc I called to fish and boat commission last week to be sure…
