2023 Steelhead Season is Coming

Steelhead season approaches, and with Mad River Outfitters and the Ohio Fly Fishing Guides at your side, there's no better time to embark on an unforgettable fishing journey. Let’s take you on an adventure through Steelhead Alley, spanning Ohio and Pennsylvania.


The Beauty of Steelhead Alley


Nestled along Ohio's Lake Erie coastline, the renowned fishery is stocked annually with around 400,000 Little Manistee River strain steelhead trout. These magnificent creatures, after two summers of growth in Lake Erie, boast an average size of 25” and 7 pounds. However, many anglers often report catches of much larger specimens, bearing testament to the world-class fishing opportunities present in the Lake Erie region.
