Official Website

of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

    The .gov means its official.

    Local, state, and federal government websites often end in .gov. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania government websites and email systems use "pennsylvania.gov" or "pa.gov" at the end of the address. Before sharing sensitive or personal information, make sure you're on an official state website. 

    The Allegheny River provides year-round fishing opportunities. The fast currents created below the lock and dam at the eastern end of the lower island attract both forage and game fish including:

    • Small-mouthed bass
    • Rock bass
    • Walleye
    • Sauger
    • Freshwater drum

     Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission regulations and laws apply.
