im kinda disappointed about this year.... i will be missing out on most of my opportunities to fish for steelies b/c ill be going to college in southern ohio.... looks like ill just have to go during holiday breaks and such.

What Ohio rivers fish the best for them?

[Lance]

There are 5 tribs that are stocked by the ODNR. From west to east they are:

Vermillion River
Rocky River
Chagrin Rvier
Grand River
Conneaut Creek

The eastern 4 have been in the program for a number of years and the "V" has only been formally stocked for about 5 yrs now, give or take. The only one's I've not fished yet are the V and Rocky but not for lack of quality fishing. Just never got over there yet! 10-15 fish days are not out of the question on any of them and have done as well as landing 8 in 2 1/2 hrs. You can do the math from there for the possibilities!

For me I tend to catch the most fish on the Chagrin but that's probably because I know it the best. The fishing is good but it's an urban fishery and unless you are in the park areas the scenery is not nearly as nice as the Grand or Connie. :)
