Hello gents, let me introduce myself. This thread appears to be about a year old but hopefully it isn't completely dead. More than 20 years ago my wife and I bought a vacant lot in Glendale Yearound with the intention of building somekind of cabin on it someday. Our plans kinda got waylaid when we bought a condo in Florida after our oldest daughter moved there after college. Anyway we never built at GR but I'm within about 2 years of retiring now and am seriously considering selling the condo and building in Glendale. I haven't fished Glendale in at least 10 years. When my dad still had his 16ft boat I used to launch it at the causeway at Wyerough Run and go under the bridge back to the 2nd cove on the right. In about 10 ft of water I used to catch catfish right and left back there using night crawlers. We vacationed up there one summer for about 10 days and I recall the big thing was largemouth bass. Alot of guys used to Texas rig a plastic nightcrawler in hopes of catching them. I caught one or two that way but was never very good at it. Well my dad is too old and in bad health these days and sold his boat long ago because I sorta took up golf when we began vacationing in Florida. I recently bought me one of those inflatable pontoon boats/rafts that has a little 30 lb electric motor attached and I wanted to re-explore Glendale in my old age. Been reading alot on the internet about Northerns & Walleys becoming more abundant there. It was always supposed to be a good muskie lake. Was wondering what tips you can give me about catching Bass, Walleye, Crappies, Northerns and Muskies. When I say "tips" I mean what parts of the lake would you recommend, what time of the year, and what kinds of baits are you presenting. I have some big muskie lures and thought I might try trolling for them. My little pontoon is not real fast but the 30 lb motor moves me fast enough to do a slow troll.
P.S. I'm also an avid trout fisherman and I although Glendale is obviously not known to be a cold water fishery, I understand that at least 2 of the Glendale tributaries (Beaverdam Run and Killbuck Run, I believe) are stocked trout waters. Any advice on catching trout there would also be appreciated.
