NOAA rain projections for Erie tonight are 0.02" So, I doubt it will mess anything up.
It won't make much difference which one you hit 1st Mucka, they will both be fine tomorrow unless some crazy amount of rain were to happen unexpectedly. As for patterns, honestly, I'm more hung-up on presentation than specific patterns for Erie steelhead. It occasionally matters, but what always matters is presentation (especially in cold water). Had them take different eggs and different streamers today. There were a few nice fresh fish around. Fish what you are most confident with and put it where they live. You should have a good day!

The more stained than normal for the flow was because of the rain. Upper Elk looked picture perfect on Monday morning but then it poured overnight.

Thanks Patrick. Looking forward to getting back out tomorrow regardless of how things go. A bad day on the stream still beats a good day at the office.

Hit 20 all day today. Great day.. Landed ten and lost another five... tons of fresh fish moved it. Lots of action all around for most guys. Only saw three fish leave the stream all day so hopefully they'll stay around for a while

was hoping to go to Erie tomorrow. Any idea's if there will be open water, or will it freeze up over night?

Fished Elk today, water was nice but starting to slush this afternoon. Things will be shut down again from here on out according to the temps.

Welp sorry to revive a seemingly dead thread, but anyone willing to give a good prediction for the upcoming weekend? Is this stuff about the ice flows crushing the fish true?

I haven't experienced it first hand, but I've seen pics before of dead steelhead along the banks of Elk killed by the ice jams. More so on the smaller water(which in this case would include most of Elk sadly). The bigger rivers/streams in Ohio and NY should be fine. There should still be plenty of fish though, plus maybe a few fresh ones once the ice clears??
As for this weekend.......I'd say it's a no-go. But it's Erie and anything can happen....

They get killed every year with ice jams. This year should be especially bad.
