Allegheny River (Allegheny County):

 Despite high, fast and muddy waters, a drop in water temperature seems to have benefited members of Venture Outdoors’ TriAnglers, who took advantage of a two-week extension to the summer fishing program. Venture Outdoors reported that between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, John Force of McKees Rocks released 10 fish including four smallmouths, a spotted bass, bluegill, rock bass, white crappie, smallmouth buffalo and a 25-inch channel catfish that took a chicken nugget. Frank McCormick of McKees Rocks, another TriAnglers veteran, hauled a 24-inch channel cat caught on a hot dog onto the North Shore wharf near PNC Park. Maurice Moore of Swissvale caught a 29-inch common carp on a hot dog.
