Pennsylvania Angler & Boater - July/August 2021 - 31

Trail, passes through the area on its way from the
northern border of Pennsylvania to Maryland.
But, the main draw for many is the fishing
on the lake. The lake population is diverse and
the fish are big.
Fish from shore? Sure. Fish from a boat? Of
course. And, the lake does not require hightech
gear. Many fish from shore with a bobber
and line.
The Stiner family, Tioga County, loves
fishing the big waters of Cowanesque Lake. Jan
Stiner and teenage son Colegan spent many
hours on the water here. Jan loves talking
about one of his favorite lakes.
" Some of the biggest hybrid Striped Bass in
Tioga County call Cowanesque Lake home, "
said Stiner.
Then, Stiner laughs, " The early morning
anglers...they love the Black Crappies at
Cowanesque Lake. The anglers call the fish
'license plates'. We measure crappies on our
arm from fingertip to elbow. If they reach your
elbow, the fish are a license plate, " said Stiner.
Sunrise over Cowanesque Lake.
" Those crappies stop biting like a light bulb turns off
when the sun comes up, " said Stiner. By then, it is time to
fish for perch and bass. By dusk it is back to the various
fish species that like low-light conditions.
Fishing continues through the night. Bowfishing is
increasing in popularity at Cowanesque Lake, and there
may be 20 boats on the lake some nights through the
midnight hour. Common Carp are pursued by boats lit
up with an elaborate array of lights, and the big fish are
ultimately shot with an arrow attached to specialized
fishing line spooled on a reel mounted to a bow.
But, that is not all that awaits anglers at Cowanesque
Lake. Elusive species like Walleyes and tiger muskellunge
also lurk here. " People come from all over to troll for
the coveted tiger muskellunge that live here, " said
Stiner. The 'fish of a thousand casts,' as referred to by
Stiner, draw anglers from several states to try to catch
" that one, boat-puller musky. "
No wonder anglers love Cowanesque Lake.
Whether visitors want to spend the day or the week,
Cowanesque Lake offers wholesome recreational fun
and big fish for anglers.
From the flooded disaster of the early 1970's to the
fantastic recreational opportunities of 2021, this is
the place to visit-if you dream of monster fish and a
good time.
