My son Eddie and his old law school roommate, Nick, meet up in Erie this time of year to fish the tributaries for steelhead.

Nice looking water and fish. Couple of pretty good gentlemen as well. I had no idea Erie offered such stream fishing.

Nice! In the meantime I've stripped bass for the next month followed by February bonefishing in Cozumel! This time doing things lil different... couple weeks with friends until I/we run out of baits! Every year go through 30* baits due to the barracuda taking our catch and the shops are expensive there so I've already started stocking up AND bringing extra everything! Tight lines Nick n NY
Wanted Ultra rare salt water reels including big game as well as unknown rare surf reels!

Yes. With an average water depth in that area of the stream of about 18”, I’m told it was quite a big fish battle.
