Rough lake conditions and sporadic passing storms have made for a wide variation in angler success stories. Walleye fishing has been the best in the second trench area off of Elk Creek but the fish are still in small pockets rather than a major school.Occassional Steelhead are being taken at Walnut Creek. Angler pressure has been from 8 to 15 fishermen on the wall. It is still very early in the season but if you go with the right attitude... it still is a pleasant way to spend the day. Some large trout have been observed jumping in the boat basin of the access area but it remains closed to fishing until the boats & docks are removed. Don't just sit at the access area & watch the Lake Erie waves crashing. Many angling opportunities exist on the inland bodies of water. Edinboro has been giving up walleye from Rt. 99 to behind the shopping mall on Rt. 6N. Most of these are being caught about 60' from shore.
