Drifter 851 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Looking forward to next weekend already. Myself and two fishing buddies are packing up and headed to Erie Pennsylvania next Friday morning super early. Going to be spending Friday through Sunday fly fishing for Steelhead. Reports are all very good that the fishing is excellent right now. Also calling for some snow all three days we are there so it'll be cold but enjoyable, I always like fishing in the snow for winter steelhead.

Jason 1,245 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Nice. Erie is a fun place. I've never steelhead fished there though. Mostly just fish for a hangover. Erie is only a hour and a half from my place. BEARDED, FOR HER PLEASURE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's steelheading for ya though Thats not that bad. It would be cool if it snowed and scared others away unless you have a nice spot. My buddy wanted to take me out a long time ago for Steelhead. He went on how awesome it was then went on to explain that you stand on the bank shoulder to shoulder with a hundred other salty fisherpeople and try not to tangle up their lines. I could foul hook a pool pall and loose a lure on the back swing of a cast so naturally I passed. They are tasty though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always less crowded water you just need to seek it out. Usually the areas that are crowded are the guys that are too lazy to hike a bit, or just your "fish once or twice a year" type guys so they see everyone in the most well known/popular spots and jump in the circus. Usually a short walk away from the crowds will get you into less pressured waters and still good fishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mile down stream and your by yourself. Lol BEARDED, FOR HER PLEASURE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifter 851 Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 My buddy in PA that we are fishing with tomorrow just sent me this current pic of one of the rivers we will be fishing.
