Better results today. This time the big fish didn't get away. I used heavier tackle, a saltwater spinning outfit and 15 lb XT Trilene. The lure was the same, a yellow 2/5 oz Cleo painted with red dots by yours truly. The horse was just short of 28 inches and just under 9 lb. I also took a 22 inch female 300 yards south of the entrance to the harbor on the outside of the east wall. With the wind blowing out of the south at 21 mph with gusts, when the fish hit, I threw the boat in neutral and played the fish while rapidly drifting toward Canada. Being by myself today, I was done in less than an hour but the ride from Warren was worth it. If you want steelhead action, Conneaut is the place to go. Try it sometime.
