Yes it rained again just before the weekend!  But the river flows did not go up very much. The Grand is at 1250 now and headed down. The Chagrin is 932 and headed down. The fishing should improve all weekend. Today try the feeder creeks and by Saturday afternoon the main rivers will be very fishable. A few walleye have been caught on the Fairport p...

Things are starting to pick back up. Chagrin flow at 325 just about perfect. The Grand has a way to go hopefully the rain misses us thursday. Had good reports from Conneaut and the Ashtabula river. The feeder creeks have produced fresh fish all week not big numbers but nice size. A few walleye have been caught off the Fairport Harbor Pier. Spring i...

Still catching decent numbers of fish this week. If we have no more rain it should be a good weekend to try. Top baits are egg sacs and jig and maggott. Chagrin river is clearing up nice and we have had several reports of fish on sucker spawn and white hackleflash beadheads.

last week we had some great fishing in the Grand river. River level is near perfect and and the fishing should remain good for the next few days as long as we don't get alot of rain thursday with the next system coming through. We've had some reports of fish caught on flies mainly sucker spawn  last week and it will only get better as we get into M...

A few fish caught in Arcola yesterday and Paine creek should be worth a try today. No reports from the Chagrin but as the flows goes below 400 things should start picking up. If little or no rain tonight and tomorrow morning the Grand may be looking good for Friday/Saturday. Lets hope!

A few fish taken the last couple of days if you can find open water. There are some stretches that are fishable but by this time tomorrow with the rain and snow melt the Grand will be rising quickly. Had a few fish caught in the Chagrin river this morning quite a ways upstream. Not as much snow around Eastlake and further south so Chagrin should no...

The flows on the rivers went up overnight with the snow melt. Grand is 1290 and Chagrin is 835. Both have started back down and fishing should pick back up Sunday. Arcola creek may be worth a try today as well as the feeder creeks to the Grand.

The next few days should offer some fantastic fishing opportunities. A little bit of snow melt will provide near perfect river levels. Definitely try the Grand this weekend we haven't had conditions this good very often this year. Egg sac's still have been working well also trout beads in the clearer water have been producing. Slow the presentation...

We don't need any more rain! The Chagrin and Conneaut fished OK the last 3 days. Rain and snow melt will probably keep levels on the high side for a few days but it may be worth a try in some of  the feeder streams around the area.

We have a new leader in our steelhead tourney. Toby Nice with a 14lb 2 oz   31 1/4" fish. Things should pick up this week in the grand and chagrin if the weather cooperates.

So far today the fishing has been very good in the chagrin river and conneaut creek. One over 34 inches out of conneaut. The Grand is still flowing at 1100 and should turn on Wednesday about the time we are expecting steady rain again.So we will see.

Grand River flow is 2760. with no more rain it should be fishable late Monday or into tuesday. Chagrin may fish later today its at 517 presently. Try the feeder creeks today weve had a couple good reports. Lets hope for no rain for a while. The Grand will produce alot of nice fish when the water conditions improve. stay warm

Chagrin flow at 338 this morning. Perfect conditions for a day of steelheading. Grand is at 1580 and should be fishable tuesday. Could be the best fishing of the year over the next few days as this flow drops. Call us for hot spots as the week progresses. Conneaut and Arcola creeks have produced some decent catches the last few days. temps in 40s a...

We had 2 lead changes yesterday in the steelhead tourney. Several nice fish out of Chagrin Conneaut and Ashtabula rivers. Rain is back so we'll see how bad the flows get. We are now carrying Raven products including float rods and reels. Lots of great gift and stocking stuffer ideas come take a look.

Tough to find fishable water anywhere in NE Ohio right now. Any more rain we might be building an arc in the back of the shop. Come on in and see us anyway. Lots of great deals for Christmas gifts including certificates!! Fly Tying demonstrations coming soon. Stay tuned for fishing updates as the rivers in the area recede. New fly tying supplies ar...

Fishing in the Grand yesterday was fantastic. Unfortunately with the rain the flow this morning is 2150cfs. We have a tie for 1st place in our steelhead contest with an 11lb 10oz 31 7/8 inches and a 12 lb 31 1/2 inch fish. Should be some fishable spots in the area thursday and getting better over the next 3 days. Several of our top steelhead angler...

Grand River Flow  2730cfs Chagrin River Flow  435cfs a couple of nice fish out of kellogg creek yesterday and the Chagrin will be a good spot today. Maybe Sunday for the Grand. Jig and maggot along with large emerald shiners are  working the best. We now carry Drennan floats and a huge selection of jigs tied by our local folks.
