The streams, the lakes, pretty much any water in Western PA at this time to some extent. The only stream Steelhead fishing I’ll be doing in the next week is some ice fishing on some of the deeper areas that hold fish over the winter. This is not something I suggest doing unless we get the kind of freeze we are currently getting. Even then going on top of a creek, even in the deeper holes, can be precarious and iffy at best. Even drilling test holes close to shore doesn’t guarentee the ice is safe in the middle of the hole, basin, or lake shore.

I’ll be starting my ice fishing season on a SW PA lake tomorrow and Sunday, and hitting PI Bay next week. Good luck if you are doing the same, and when we have open water Steelhead fishing I’ll update accordingly.
