  • Ohio is home to "Steelhead Alley," a nickname given to the over 30 tributaries that flow into Lake Erie's southern shore in Ohio. Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York all have steelhead trout-stocking programs that give anglers the opportunity to partake in a particularly bountiful harvest. Guided fishing trips to steelhead alley will allow anglers the chance to encounter some of the best fishing spots in the area. Remember, you will need to obtain a valid Ohio fishing permit before beginning your guided fishing trip.
