I think this is common for both Minersville and Newcastle. wiper activity certainly picks up in the late evening.
[quote fishinfool]5-7 lb wipers have been caught there this year. [/quote]
5-7 lb wipers were being caught at Minersville 2 years ago! This one was caught in 2015.

There are big wipers in both (obviously), and people have been catching them in both. If I were to pick 1 right now to specifically target wipers, I'd choose Newcastle. But if I wanted to go fish from my pontoon and catch some quality fish with a chance at maybe picking up a wiper, I'd go to Minersville.
