All of the Lake Erie tributaries except Sixteen Mile Creek were frozen as of Thursday. At Sixteen Mile Creek, anglers have been catching some steelhead between the Route 89 bridge and the lake. The largest reported was 7 pounds.
At Elk Creek Sports Store, Dan Seaman predicted that anticipated rains will break up the ice, and creeks will be high and muddy through the weekend, and that the soonest steelhead fishing might be good is Tuesday.
Before getting to ice-fishing reports, please keep in mind that these reports are only as recent as Thursday. The warm spell and predicted rain probably will have made all area ice unsafe by the weekend, if not today.
At Presque Isle Bay, there have been huts on the ice at Misery Bay. But there are no reports of fish being caught. Some anglers have been fishing open water at the Marina.
