I haven't visited the fishing forum for awhile because I haven't been fishing in PA, but yesterday I went on a scouting trip to Erie, so I figured I'd share my observations..
I checked out the mouth of Trout Run, and was pleasantly surprised to find that some steelhead have arrived. Also checked out the lower end of Walnut and you could see several in the usual spots. I didn't check out Elk because of the construction on the road to the ramp. I discovered that a couple weeks ago on a previous trip.
The cold nights have definitely brought some in, but with the low water, I doubt they are very far upstream yet. If we get the rain that is in the forecast, this will soon change.
Also saw several deer at the nut while I was walking my dog. A yearling was standing in some guys yard and just stood there watching as we walked past. My old dog didn't even see it.
I have gone fishing, just not in PA. We had a nice perch dinner last week, and I didn't even have leave the property to catch them.
