ROCKHARD -> RE: in 90 Days (7/2/2008 6:53:30 PM)

always ready,, been tying for a few weeks now, cant wait



kyler16 -> RE: in 90 Days (7/2/2008 10:57:26 PM)

With the ridicilous cost of gas, lots and lots of car pooling will be done this Chrome season. Im always up to pitching  in a full tank of gas for anyone who offers to drive. all I need is just a week notice or least 24 hours so I can schedule my pto days.  Trips myself are going to be limited since the neon is on its last leg really going to miss that 30+ mile to the gallon beater. oh well the thought of steelhead on the end of the line always brings a smile!

Cant wait to hear or shout "FISH ON"

For me it's smallmouth Bass first, then Walleye & Sauger, then carp.  Yeah, it's already been a good year and the summer is shaping up to be a winner.



fishrmn -> RE: in 90 Days (7/3/2008 1:38:28 AM)

I've caught steelhead in the tribs every labor day for about the past five or six years.  So that's around 60 some days until I give it a shot. 

Kyler,

I think some car-polling is in order this year for sure!

elephanthead -> RE: in 90 Days (7/3/2008 8:48:35 AM)

Rich, me buddy Randy asked me Monday why we didn't start the countdown yet. Told him I was too busy fileting walleye,suageye,& perch, it's on him this year to do the countdown.   Dave



freshwaterdrumR -> RE: in 90 Days (7/3/2008 9:54:17 AM)

ill (hopefully) be getting into some steel in under a month. we slammed them last year, end of july while walleye fishing. best part is....no crowds



vinestbrew -> RE: in 90 Days (7/3/2008 5:20:23 PM)

pin_drifter -> RE: in 90 Days (7/3/2008 6:20:59 PM)

Well fellows with all the rian we hav been having might look good for this upcoming stelhead season. Last year was a banner year. I could only hope for another outstanding year to come. I can't wait to see my float dunk again. I miss it.



Kokanee Killer -> RE: in 90 Days (7/3/2008 7:22:16 PM)

Hey kyler kokanee first,you know where to find me i will chip in or just solo whatever cant wait. my 8 yr old son will ply the waters with me on steel for the first time this season



tommybanzai -> RE: in 90 Days (7/3/2008 7:36:46 PM)

car pooling might be in my future....no driving up the night before and sleeping in my car at the last rest stop on 79 before erie. 3 bucks a gallon wasnt to bad...but this 4 dolar stuff...i just dont want to do it....unless i get a warmer sleeping bag



Livinfishin -> RE: in 90 Days (7/3/2008 11:53:29 PM)

Steelhead fishing always beats the price of gas.  Can't wait to get things going!

According to this post steelhead will be in by September 30, I'm game and I'll hold ya to it.  86 days and counting down.



harryape5 -> RE: in 90 Days (7/6/2008 10:15:43 PM)

If the weather stays the way its been It may be a little later than usual It seems Erie has been a couple or 3 weeks behind schedule.



fishmonger -> RE: in 90 Days (7/6/2008 11:34:21 PM)

I have big plans for this season's steelheading. I'm not going to let the price of gasoline ruin it. We have started a kitty now to pay for the gas this fall. An extra $20 dollars or so shouldn't keep us away. The crowds may not be as large, but I don't have a problem with that either. My father, our fishing buddy Mike, and I made 14 overnight trips to the tribs last year. We wanted to do 16, but fell short. We will probably do some three day trips this season. I have a lot of tying do between now and September. I hope to run into some of the fishermen from these forums.

Of course I'm counting this as the first big run with rainy, cool weather.  Not the one or two pods of fish that 10,000 anglers are throwing at nor that labor straggler...84 days.



The Sack -> RE: in 90 Days (7/8/2008 10:11:58 PM)

There is no amount of gas money that will keep me off the Steelies...Labor day is when I get started...So about 60 days or so. Can't wait!



smallhook -> RE: in 90 Days (7/12/2008 11:31:03 PM)

80 days and counting



DanesDad -> RE: in 90 Days (7/13/2008 12:30:28 AM)

Got my wife a Toyota Corolla-35MPG.  It'll cost me the same for gas in that as it did for my truck 4 years ago.  But I'll still get up there.



joebaker79 -> RE: in 90 Days (7/13/2008 10:49:56 AM)

Whats with the 80-90 days talk?  Going by my journals I have a steelhead in the smoker the last week of August to the first week in September.  50 days sounds about right to me.  One thing Ive learned early is the first few weeks they show up hit the right spot with the right lure and it will feel like late October.  No further comment on said spot or lure.



coolerfull1 -> RE: in 90 Days (7/13/2008 8:28:24 PM)

We are moreless talking of the cool, rainy days and the first big run occurring.  That change in the seasons we look foward to.  79 days....



eriecombo -> RE: in 90 Days (7/13/2008 8:56:00 PM)

in  90 days ill be  about 25 feet up in a tree with my hoyt and also baggin out steelies left and right!!!!!cant wait!!!!! keep the lines tight.



Kokanee Killer -> RE: in 90 Days (7/13/2008 8:57:48 PM)

ok fellers,looked back in my journal from years back,(apparentley back then before kids and responsibilities and single)my earliest steelhead caught was a typical bread and butter 25 incher from walnut way back before they created the project waters circa 1991. aug 28th



rapala11 -> RE: in 90 Days (7/14/2008 5:58:22 AM)

i keep getting my gear out and leaning it against the wall in the living room.  my family and the cat just groan.  it has been a long time since i last took part in the fun and am looking forward to it.  wish i could put 100 gallons of gas in lay away before then.
