Wiki Excerpt:

The Beaver River is a tributary of the Ohio River in western Pennsylvania in the United States with a length of approximately 21�mi (34�km). It flows through a historically important coal-producing region north of Pittsburgh. The Beaver River is formed in Lawrence County by the confluence of the Mahoning and Shenango rivers at a point approximately 3�mi (5�km) southwest of New Castle. It flows generally south, past West Pittsburg and Homewood, roughly parallel to the border with the state of Ohio. It receives Connoquenessing Creek west of Ellwood City and flows past Beaver Falls and New Brighton. It joins the Ohio at Beaver and Rochester (flowing between these two cities) at the downstream end of a sharp bend in the Ohio approximately 20�mi (32�km) northwest of (and downstream from) Pittsburgh. In the lower reaches near the Ohio River, the Beaver cuts through a gorge of underlying sandstone.

Nice Crappie can be caught right behind the Ford Garage in the town of Bridgewater during February/March. It is sort of ugly and typically muddy, but where else are you going to load up on crappies in February? There is an old bridge abuttment in the location. Try tying on two split tail jigs and use light line as long casts are needed. Just slow retrieve and jig should catch fish.
