ERIE COUNTY

Presque Isle Bay
Mike @ Lake Erie Bait & Tackle; filed 10-10: Perch are starting to move into the Bay. An-
glers are catching them on North & South Piers and the East & West Piers. Crappies are be-
ginning to show up in Marina Lake but they are small. Some steelheads have moved into
the streams, with many more waiting to move up when we get rain.

PIB Crappies from the deep/ Danny Danny @ Bay Rat Lures; filed 10-10: I haven’t been doing
much bass fishing at PIB, but I have been catching crappies
pretty good there. Most crappies have come from deeper
water (15 to 20 feet) but they are now moving into the
shallower bays. I have been using 4-pound Gamma Edge
with a 1/16 ounce jighead and a Mister Twister grub. Perch
should be coming into the bay in force now that the water
temp is beginning to drop.

Thomas Watral (Erie); filed 10-7: We went out onto Lake Erie on October 1st to see we
could locate perch or walleye schools. From Beach One to 20 Mile Creek, nothing on the
fish finder. But steelheads are loaded near the mouths of the creeks. We’ve been picking
up some smaller perch in the Bay off Dobbins Landing, Borders Dock, in the Marina, and
off the South Pier.

steelhead at our Elk Creek Campground by the Tunnel. See our photos!
