Fishing Summer Smallmouth Bass and Trout on Pine Creek North Pittsburgh

 

Pine Creek - Wildwood Road - Allison Park

On Sunday 7.17 (9:00am - 3:00pm) Caught and released:

15.5 inch Smallmouth bass -  free floating nightcrawlers through currents and structure.

Another 4 smallies (10 - 13 inch range)

13 inch (mid-July) Rainbow on panther martin spinner

Was very excited to see the trout very active on the creek this late in the season- spied a few palominos and rainbows cruising the creek.  I think they were more visible / confined since the water level was lower than usual due to lack of rain.

Creek looks good!

Pine Creek Trout - North Hills Pittsburgh

Good day on the water. Caught 5 trout in Pine Creek off of Wildwood Road near of North Park.

Bait/Tackle: Panther Martin spinner and large nightcrawlers.
