Some people fish from boats out in front of the stream/creek mouths. They will troll, drift or cast for them. Mostly spoons, spinners or minnow imitations. Fishing from shore they’ll cast spoons or use single eggs or egg sacs on the bottom. In PA, most of the Erie tributaries are small creeks. No big rivers. If you think Erie walleye fishing is addicting, hook one steelhead on light tackle and you will be addicted! They will take you for a ride!
