I made the 1st trip of the year up to fish for steelhead at Walnut Creek, Erie Pa…It was a nice morning to be out steelhead fishing. I arrived around 7:30am and fished the hole above the stop sign. There were fish in there as you could see them moving up and then back down all morning. I did manage to catch 1 steelhead on a blue fly but that is all I was able to catch. It was a nice size steelhead but it did come off as I was pulling it onto the rocks for release. I took a few videos…when I get them on my computer, I will add them to the site. There were a couple of guys fishing the hole with me and they were getting steelhead pretty steady. One of the guys from my previous videos was there fishing and he caught quite a few steelhead…probably around 8-10 or so. I only stayed for an hour and a half since it seemed like it slowed down as soon as the sun came up. There are fish in the holes and they are moving up and down but the creek is low. Definitely some more rain to bring the creeks up.
