The leaves changing have signaled fall is here along with the giant night walleyes. Trolling F-18s and Husky Jerks in 9-21 feet at 1.5-1.9mph have been producing the seasons first. Good Luck to all the Fall Brawl contestants.
Steelhead fishing has been tough with low water, hopefully with rain in the forecast we will see good pushes from East to West. The shop has plenty of eggs ready for this upcoming season. Riversedge Floats photo contest has just taken off, look for some great fish porn in up coming weeks.
Perch fishing has remained hot ,with the seasons biggest fish being taken the last few days.

Its that time of year again, some are finding sleep hard to come by with steelhead on the brain. Kings have made they're way up the rivers East and West of us. Steelhead and brown trout have started up in P.A. Right here in Ohio we are seeing some solid numbers of steelhead in all the creeks Vermilion to Conneaut. Eggs are available now so don't wait till the supply dries up.
Perch fishing is as good as it gets here off of Avon Lake look for them in 38' to 45'.
The walleye bite is picking up off Vermilion with harnesses and cranks both working.

Perch fishing does not get any better. 36'- 42' a good old Lake Erie Shiner is all that's needed to load the freezer.
Walleye fishing is starting to get back to normal. Look for trophy's from Vermilion to Cedar Point in 16-28'. Reef Runners, Deep Huskies and worm harnesses are all taking fish.
With fall weather patterns the bite can be tuff ,so if you see calm water and a rising barometer , its time to get out there.
Its that time of year again, silver fish chasers are heading to are sister states. Salmon fishing is in full swing with fresh kings still pushing. Chunk skein fishing in the low rivers is still great. Drifting large flies as well as skein upper river is also still getting fish to bite.
Steelhead fishing locally is heating up, with every rain bringing up fresh pushes. Jigs as well as bags are working for the guys and girls fishing the marinas. Minnow and egg patterns ,jigs ,spawn are all working in the middle and upper sections of river. Probally the best early season action we have seen in years.

With cool nights and some rain we will see fresh pushes of chrome the next few days. Guys are heading East and West to are sister states for king salmon runs and early steel. For those of us not that lucky they're will finally be some steelhead action right here in are back yards. Fish have been already found miles up river but I think staying low will put you on the best numbers. Spawn, jigs as well as many fly patterns will work. Jigs and large minnow patterns are my early season favorite.
Perch fishing has been at its best the last week with plenty of limits off Avon Lake,Beaver Creek as well as Lorain. You will see limits of all 10" and better!
With the Fall Brawl approaching don't forget to get signed up. Night walleye will a go with a few sable nights of weather. Daytime shoreline action should heat up with Reef Runners traditionally the best bet.
