Steelheading Extravaganza!

Varying Conditions

This week has been a bag of varying conditions throughout the Erie tributary system.  With spotty lake effect showers, inland storms and cold fronts from every angle each creek experienced different flows and clarity from another.  As steelhead anglers we've learned that no matter what it is like out there, some creeks fish very well in not so great conditions and others phenomenal. 
The steelheading has been great this year and there is nothing but many more months of exciting fishing to come.  I look forward to seeing you on the tributaries.

Steelhead Mania!

It's ON!

This weeks report is "ITS ON"!  The steelhead are in and in great numbers this year.  All of the creeks have excellent fishing on them and it's time to go.  The trout fishing remains great and will continue through winter.  I'm already thinking of the excellent spring run off streamer season for trophy wild browns and the great spring dry fly action.  Until then the steelhead will have to keep the rod bent and the line ripping.  See you on the water!!!

Big Steel!

Lake Erie Steelhead

This week proved to be a nice one to be on the water.  Low clear conditions prevailed on the Erie Tributaries.  To the patient fly angler, carefully working through the riffle, runs and pools with precision and stealth a reward in bright chrome leaping from the depths at the end of the line was the pay off.  With rain in the forecast for the rest of the weekend, some of the creeks will fish better than others.  Early next week water conditions should be prime!  Good Luck this steelhead season and I'll see you on the tribs!
