In addition to walleye, steelhead (also known as rainbow trout) are another exciting target species on Lake Erie. Steelhead are a thrill to catch due to their incredible fight and strong runs. These fish are found in the cooler, deeper waters, providing a fantastic challenge for anglers. Steelhead offer an exhilarating experience as they often leap and take long runs, making them one of the most dynamic species to reel in

Occasionally, we also land coho and king salmon, as well as brown trout and lake trout, adding variety to our fishing trips. These species add even more excitement and variety to your catch, making each outing on Lake Erie an adventure.

Our fishing season on Lake Erie typically begins in June and runs until early October, with each month offering its own unique fishing opportunities. Early season steelhead and walleye fishing kicks off with excellent catches of both species with mix in size. As the summer progresses, we see an increase in the walleye in the area, and by late summer into fall the larger fish move into the shallows.

The combination of these species, along with the beautiful scenery and calm waters of Lake Erie, makes for an unforgettable fishing experience. Whether you are an experienced angler looking for a trophy walleye or a novice eager to catch your first steelhead, Long Point Bay and Nanticoke offer a world-class fishing destination.
