Steelhead fishing in February is a challenge because of weather extremes. Open-water is best. Ice fishing is doable. Jigs seem to work best, but egg sacs and minnows will get you a fish or two. Fish the deep, slow moving sections of good holding water. Expect a slow, delicate bite.

Open-water in January keeps steelhead anglers happy. The bite is slow, fish are lethargic, but you can succeed. Regis did not catch all of the fish, but he got the most video time! Drifting jigs and bottom fishing egg sacs was the ticket.

A number of clips taken across several days. Audio system was failing so you may hear some audio distortion. Sorry about that.

This video shows conditions that usually make for a good fishing day in Lake Erie. Anglers wading, old guys to the right in bag chairs, everyone had fun until the wind shifted to the north and spoiled the party. No edits, just rough footage, watch if you have 1/2 hour to waste

Regis designed a presentation to overcome the lack of a drift. He caught three steelhead on three consecutive casts! Not bad by any standard. We left the hot bite to go to a Chinese Restaurant buffet for some hot bites! Fishing should be fun, not work!
