Steelhead Fly

Steelhead Fly

what r some good lures/flies/bait to use for salmon and steelhead in lake erie creeks?

just started stream fishing have not had much luck

A few that I always carry with me :

1) Nuclear eggs (yarn flys) in orange/chartreuse or pink/chartreuse
2) stone fly nymphs (black and gold) dead drifted

egg sacs (blue/yellow/pink) check your local tackle shop, they should have a variety of egg sac colors.

If you’re using spinning gear, I recommend using no more than 6lb test (fluorocarbon) and red octopus hooks (Gamakatsu) for fishing egg sacs. Tie on a leader of 3ft using a good ball bearing swivel. Place your split shot above the swivel – cast quartering upstream and dead drift downstream, make sure you are “ticking” off the bottom, if not, add more shot, if you keep getting hung-up, take off some shot.
Flies can be fished in the same manner on a spinning rod.

Using a fly rod (7or 8 wt) : 3x or 4x fluorocarbon tippet, fish the flys
or nymphs the same way you would fishing for trout (usually
dead drifted w/ an indicator). You can also swing woolly-boogers
(black/dark olive work well) quartering across and down stream,
most hits (vicious ! ) will come on the “swing”.
