When searching for Ohio steelhead- forget everything you read about riffles, runs, water depth, temp.,etc. They love to hole up behind apartment buildings, chunks of cement , and old railroad ties!

Chagrin River Report!
Monday on the Chagrin started slow with lots of slush on the river. 21 degrees in the morning and full sun. After the slush burned off in the afternoon a couple fish were caught and released. Egg patterns and Euro larvae tipped jigs brought them up from the belly of the deep holes.

Weekend Report!
Stayed local Saturday afternoon. The bite was on during the warmest part of the day- 2-4 pm. I caught several chubs and bluegill. Let's welcome "Minnow Mike" to the blog. Mike fishes all over NE Ohio and had a great day! He was using minnows and brought a surprise rainbow to the bank. I tried to get him to throw it back, Mike said- " No way! I'm having beans and trout tonight!" Nice fishing with you buddy, see on the creek!
Spikekayak called and said Mike's bass was in fact a "Spotted Bass"- see Ohio DNR description. Note, the dark spots along the lateral line of the fish. Fantastic catch for this particular creek. Mike released this beauty.
