A PUBLICATION OF THE PA STEELHEAD ASSOCIATION

January 2018

When in doubt,

Exaggerate!

Letter from our President

As of press time it’s freezing rain, but at least the streams are open. Thanks to everyone in attendance at the December meeting / Christmas party. Always a good time just visiting, although our board members have stepped up an arranged some great programs this year. By the time you are reading this, it will already be 2018. There are lots of great steelhead activities to do while the streams are frozen – if they are frozen. The North Coast Fly Fishers will hold an event in Brecksville Ohio on January 20th. There are all kinds of seminars for many different types of fishing. The next week is The Fly Fishing Show, in Edison New Jersey, for those fly fisher-men in the club. If you want to see a new product or learn about a new technique, this is the place to be. There are 7 shows across the country, and the New Jersey show is the biggest of the 7 shows. Penn’s Woods West Trout Unlimited will be having their annual Cabin Fever show. I don’t have many details except that the date and location have changed. Dale Fogg and his crew always organize a great show. The PSA always has a table there, with Mike Felege and myself selling raffle tickets in past years to support the Landowners Fruit Basket program. I always like to say hello to all of our SWPA members who cannot attend our meetings. (Continued on Page 2, Col. 2)

Winter has set in with a vengeance. Not only have the temper-

atures hovered in the teens in the daytime and dropped to the

single digits at night we have received upwards of 5 feet of

snow in most of Erie County.

Most of the streams are locked up with ice with the possible

exception of 16 mile creek. The combination of very deep snow

and limited stream access has limited steelhead fishing dra-

matically. Ice fishing for steelhead along shoreline, in the bay

and at the Walnut Creek marina is currently marginal at best

due to the snow insulating the ice making it very treacherous.

With continued cold conditions the availability for ice fishing is

improving daily.

Ice fishing for steelhead relative to terminal tackle is very much

the same as open water with the usual assortment of jigs, flies

and natural bait like skein, egg sacks power bait and live min-

nows. Berkley Power minnows are also very effective and can

actually out fish live minnows. Small jigging spoons and small

vertical hard baits are also effective.

A good set up for fishing is to use a small ice fishing spinning

rod coupled with a good spinning reel. The spinning rod should

be about 4 feet in length so that you can have the ability to

hover over the hole for landing. Using fluorocarbon leader can

help improve your catch but is not absolutely necessary. A

plastic dipper for removing ice from the hole is also a neces-

sary accessory.

If you plan to release any steelhead you hook please do not

gaff them. With a little patience you can steer the head of the

steelhead into the hole and its swimming action will actually

propel it upward and easily landed onto the ice.

The best hand auger from this writer’s perspective is a Nils

Auger. It will cut through ice with minimal effort even when

the ice is 2 feet thick. Power augers are also available in

Also in March, there is a walleye school to be held in Girard. This is sponsored by the Erie PA Charter Boat Associa-tion. Lots of information to fish for walleye and to fill the freezer over the summer. The SONS of Lake Erie will be doing their annual Ice Out event. There are more door prizes than I can list, but the grand prize is either a fishing boat or an ATV. It’s never too early to think about the 2018 steelhead sea-son. The PSA board is always looking for a few good men – or women – who would like to help promote preserve and pro-tect Steelhead Alley in Pennsylvania. I hope everyone had a good holiday season, and I hope to see some new faces at our monthly meetings this year. Tight lines Mark S.

Clearfield County Access Area Closed for Construction

HARRISBURG, Pa. (Dec. 22) – The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission is alerting anglers and boaters who use the Frenchville/Deer Creek access area in Graham Township, Clearfield County, that the facility will be closed until next summer while improvements are made to the site. The project is expected to last approximately 7 months. The access area is tentatively scheduled to reopen to the public by the end of July 2018. “The existing entrance road for the access area follows the abandoned highway alignment and has a severe cut-back which requires a 3-point turn with a steep drop off to enter the access area,” said Michele Jacoby, Director of the PFBC Bureau of Engineering. “Additionally, parking is limited for the site. The property will be temporarily closed in order to improve public safety and make general site improvements.” The project includes realigning the entrance road from State Route 1009, improving the turnaround area, adding additional parking and installing a concrete boat ramp. Also, the gravel parking area will be made larger to ac-commodate seven parking spaces for trailered boats. “The improvements will benefit our customers who use the site for canoeing and kayaking and will also provide a new access for customers with trailered boats,” added Jacoby.

Pa Lake Erie Tributary Landowner Appreciation Fruit Baskets

For those that are not familiar with this program. In 2007 a few local fisherman gave fruit baskets to a hand full of land owners around Christmas for letting us fish on their land. In 2008 the same group went to the Gem City Outdoorsmen Club, Northwest Pa TU and the Pa Steelhead Asso-ciation and asked for donations. The program grew over the years and on December 16th, 2017 a group of volunteers met at Heartland for Breakfast before delivering 85 baskets to show apprecia-tion for those that allow access to streams on their property. The 85 baskets cost $30.00 each and totaled $2,550!

Restoring a Lake Ontario Native by Justin DiRado December 21, 2017 (Eds. Note: Justin is the new Social Media Manager at FishUSA)

Atlantic Salmon were once a thriving species in eastern North America, with a wide range and high abun-dance in many waterways along the Canadian and northern U.S. coastlines. Freshwater, or landlocked, populations were also found in many inland waters; none more extensive than the Lake Ontario water-shed. Historically, the St. Lawrence River provided migratory fish like Atlantic Salmon a route between Lake Ontario and the Atlantic Ocean. However, it is widely believed that most salmon comprising the origi-nal Lake Ontario population migrated between the Lake and its tributaries, completing their entire life cycle in freshwater. The Oswego River system, which encompassed hundreds of miles of streams and rivers and incorporated many of the Finger Lakes in central New York, represented the most complicated and extensive network of waters inhabited by Atlantic Salmon. The fish provided local Native Americans an abundant and easily accessible food source, especially when the fish entered tributaries in the summer and fall to spawn. Salmon were easily speared, netted, and caught by the hundreds in a single night. Un-fortunately, it was their easy access and capture that helped lead to their demise.

European settlers also found Atlantic Salmon to be a great food source and as they expanded throughout the Lake Ontario and central New York regions, exploitation began to unfold. Overfishing and other symp-toms of human expansion, such as habitat loss, damming of tributaries, logging, and introduction of inva-sive species, all contributed to a declining salmon population in the region. With reduced access to inland spawning habitat in tributaries, the species could not complete its life cycle. Further, Alewife became es-tablished in Lake Ontario by the mid-1800s and became the dominant forage species for top native preda-tors such as Atlantic Salmon and Lake Trout. Alewife contain an enzyme (thiaminase) which breaks down vitamin B1; a necessary component to proper salmon egg and juvenile development. Overexposure of thi-aminase can negatively impact most, if not all, trout and salmon species and Atlantic Salmon are the most susceptible to the enzyme. In extreme cases, exposure can impact adult motor functions and survival (these symptoms were most recently seen in lethargic and dying Steelhead in tributaries of Lake Ontario in the past several years, most notably in 2015). Improper egg and juvenile development brought on by thia-minase exposure contributed to a declining Atlantic Salmon population throughout the 1800’s. Despite ear-ly hatchery propagation efforts, thiaminase exposure and other factors (i.e. habitat loss, overfishing, etc.) ultimately lead to the extirpation of the species from the Lake Ontario system by 1900.

Interest in restoring Atlantic Salmon would grow and shrink throughout the 1900s. A number of restoration and reintroduction efforts were attempted to repopulate Lake Ontario with Atlantic Salmon. Many of these efforts yielded few or no results in terms of adult salmon returning to the tributaries in which they were originally stocked as juveniles. Alewife populations swelled, other invasive and exotic species became es-tablished, inland development continued to change the landscape, and access to tributary spawning habi-tat was still limited by dams. In the late 1960’s, Pacific salmon and steelhead were stocked in Lake Ontario to control the Alewife population. Since this time, Chinook and Coho Salmon, and Steelhead became es-tablished in many of the tributaries once inhabited by Atlantic Salmon, with hatchery stocking and wild re-production now contributing to a world-class salmonid fishery. With the advent of this new fishery and the limited success with Atlantic Salmon, much attention was drawn away from efforts to restore the native species. While the niche of the top pelagic predators in the Lake shifted from Atlantic Salmon to Pacific salmonids, other aspects of the Lake Ontario ecosystem were also changing. Species like Round Gobies were introduced, many dam permits were not relicensed and the barriers were removed from tributaries, and conservation interests came to the forefront for many individuals. These changes, among many oth-ers, were starting to alter the landscape for the better in terms of blazing a trail for renewed interest in re-storing Atlantic Salmon.

Fast forward to the 21st century: angler groups, conservation organizations, state and federal agencies are now realizing the economic, social, political, and recreational benefits of reintroducing a native preda-tory sportfish into the new Lake Ontario ecosystem. In the early 2000’s, the United States Geological Sur-vey renewed stocking and evaluation of Atlantic Salmon to Lake Ontario and its tributaries. For the first time in over a century, the first naturally reproduced Atlantic Salmon was confirmed in the Salmon River in the eastern Lake Ontario basin in 2009. Natural reproduction would be confirmed off and on for the next few years in this tributary that historically contributed a considerable number of fish to the overall Atlantic Salmon population in the Lake. While the number of natural individuals was low and the results were (continued on next page) 4

limited, it was nonetheless an encouraging breakthrough for Atlantic Salmon reintroduction efforts. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation would come to contribute smolts to the Lake Ontario system; fish that had previously been stocked in other inland waters to offer put-and-take fisheries. Angler groups such as the Fish Creek Atlantic Salmon Club, who has now been stocking salmon finger-lings in other tributaries for 20 years, were gaining notoriety for their volunteer efforts. Additionally, efforts from the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources were contributing a number of resources to Atlantic Salmon reintroduction on the Canadian side of the Lake.

Today, results of these combined efforts can be seen in the increasing number of adult salmon caught in the Lake and tributary recreational fisheries. Creel surveys indicate that Atlantic Salmon still contribute a small overall number of the adult salmonids in the Lake Ontario fishery, but their presence has not gone unnoticed by anglers. There is still a long way to go in terms of reintroduction and evaluation efforts, and it will take a strong dedication by a number of stakeholders to truly make this a success story. But the stage has been set; the ever-changing Lake Ontario environment has shown that it can once again offer Atlantic Salmon the improved conditions they require for survival. This species deserves attention as a native member of the Lake Ontario fishery with a storied history in the region. Adding Atlantic Salmon to the sport fishery will yield more opportunities for anglers to pursue. With a legendary reputation as one of the pound-for-pound hardest fighting sportfish (often held in even higher regard than Steelhead) and given the moni-ker “King of Fish”, this species deserves some room in the water.

Featured Fly From the “Fly by Night Guys” “JC’s Electric Steelie Stone” variant- Nymph Pattern

Below is the original pattern recipe that John Collins developed, and then my adapted version. By adapted, I mean that in my fly tying development I found that there are so many materials out there that it is impossible to own them all, I just make do with what I already have that is similar. The original recipe calls for blue goose biots, but not only do I not have that color, I haven’t been able to find any locally. Material: John Collin’s original

Hook: size 6 Daiichi 2151 Steelhead/Salmon hook, or TMC

7999 or a Daiichi 2441 Thread: Royal Blue 6/0 Uni Tail: Blue goose biots, splayed outward Antennae: Blue goose biots, splayed inward Abdomen: Wapsi Clear Stretch Tubing size small with

Blue Brassie Ultra Wire fed through the tube

Wingcase: Dyed Blue Turkey Feather , sprayed with Krylon Workable Fixatif, folded back twice.

Thorax: Dubbed Senyo Fusion Dub Smurf Blue Legs: pick out dubbed thorax with bodkin so fibers repre-

sent legs Head: Thread wraps with UV cured resin applied

Material: adapted version of Electric Steelie Stone Hook: #10 Salmon Fly Hook #8050 1 BL Thread: Royal Blue 6/0 Uni Tail: Black goose biots, splayed outward Antennae: Black goose biots, splayed inward Abdomen: Wapsi Clear Stretch Tubing size small with

Blue Brassie Ultra Wire fed through the tube Wingcase: Swiss Straw clear , colored with Blue Sharpie

marker (could also use Electric blue Flashabou or Lazer Wrap in King Fisher Blue). Treated with Clear Cure Goo and zapped for 10 seconds with a UV light.

Thorax: Ice Dub Blue Steelie, with a little Electr ic Blue Flashabou accent cut up and mixed in

Legs: pick out dubbed thorax with bodkin so fibers repre-sent legs

Head: Thread wraps with UV cured resin applied

Electric Steelie Stone

Fly Type: Dead dr ifted along bottom as a nymph. Target Species: Steelhead, Trout, Pan fish Imitation: Stonefly How to Fish it: Under a dropper r ig, or nymphing in tandem or by itself. Recommended Region: Lake Er ie and Ontar io tr ibutar ies

I experimented with Swiss Straw colored blue, Flashabou’s and

Lazer Wrap for the wing case. With Lazer Wrap (similar to Thin

Skin) as the wingcase and a coating of Clear Cure Goo hit with a

UV light it makes it a very durable fly. I found the color best

when using both the Electric Blue Flashabou and the Kingfisher

blue Lazer Wrap when making the wingcase. So you can experi-

ment with the different materials and colors until you find what

works best for you. Since blue is the last color absorbed, in dark

deep water, it makes sense to use a blue fly when fishing deep

holes. Tying Instructions: 1. Pinch down the barb and attach the thread to the hook half

way between the back edge of the eye and the end of the return. Leaving a 2 inch tag of the thread off the bend of the hook, build up a thread base all the way down the shank to just past the hook barb. Wind the thread back to the hook point.

2. Tie in a pair of black matching goose biots back to back so

they curve away from each other, just above the hook barb. They should extend a quarter inch beyond the hook bend. Pinch them together when wrapping back so they tent over the shank a little. After wrapping to the end of the original thread wraps, pull the tag end of the thread forward between the biots to keep them splayed apart. Wrap forward over tag end of the thread and the butt ends of the biots to give a little bulk to the fly. Clip off excess tag and biot ends. You should have a smooth thread base from the tail to the ¾ point of the hook shank.

3. For the antennae tie in two more biots with the points facing

the opposite way of the tail so they splay inward this time. The antennae should be slightly shorter than the tail. Again wrap back binding the butt ends of the biot to the shank giv-ing it bulk all the way back to the base of the tail.

4. Now we need to form the abdomen of the fly. First take

about 8 inches of the Blue Brassie Ultra wire and feed it through an equal amount of the stretch tubing. Twist and spin the tubing over the wire as opposed to pushing the wire into the tubing. With a bit of the wire exposed to catch first, tie in the ribbing on the far side of the shank near the tail. To add more bulk to the body you then pull the tubing forward along far side of the top of the shank wrap. Wrap forward until you get to the hook eye return.

5. Now again pull back the tubing this time on the near side of the top of the shank and bind it down by wrapping back to the base of the tail. Then wrap back again to the front of the tubing smoothing it all out. Anchor everything here with a couple of half hitches or whip finishes to lock it all in place.

6. Here the original recipe calls for using needle nose pliers to

flatten out the body of the fly before wrapping the tubing forward.

Page 8

7. Use touching wraps of the tubing all the way up the hook shank to

the point you left your thread hanging. Then anchor the tubing with the thread before snipping off all but 1/8” of the tubing and wire. Use your thread to bind the end of the tubing to the top of the hook shank creating a small ramp toward the eye.

8. Again use your pliers to flatten the abdomen of the fly. Now tie in

your wingcase material. Here I am using Swiss Straw colored blue with a sharpie. Secure it on top of the tubing from the base of the eye to the tubing.

9. Form a dubbing rope with Ice Dub Blue Steelie (a little wax on the thread helps form a nice dubbing noodle). Wrap forward to form a thorax up to the end of the hook eye return.

10. Form the first of the two wing cases by folding the Swiss Straw

wing case forward by bending it over your bodkin. The first wing case should reach back to near the hook point. Tie it down over the top of the thorax. Now fold it back to form the second wing case and bind it down.

11. Form another dubbing noodle and dub forward to build up the

thorax. Now creating the second wingcase about halfway back of the first bend the Swish Straw over a bodkin and tie off behind the eye. For extra security bend the wing case butt end back over it-self and wrap again.

12. Clip the butt end of wing case as close as possible, then build

smooth thread head and whip-finish. 13. Use Clear Cute Goo to coat

head and if desired, the wing case.

Black Stonefly nymphs typical crawl along the bottom and rocks to make their way to the shore to hatch. They get more active when the sun is out and the water slightly warms. They often get swept away from the rocks they cling to and are floating food for trout. Dead drift-ing the nymph near the bottom is the typical way to fish it. Stoneflies don’t swim to the surface so they rarely would float near the surface. Adding weight to the fly leader or fly is important to place it correctly. Cast it far enough ahead to allow the fly to sink to the bottom before reaching the area you want to fish. If any Steelhead Association members have questions about a fly or wish to see a fly featured in this column of the newsletter send an

email to info@PaSteelhead.com with “Fly by Night Guy” in the sub-ject line!

December 13th General Membership Meeting

A good time was had by all socializing at our De-cember general membership meeting this month on the 13th. We held our short membership meeting and then shared some pizza and chicken wings! We enjoyed great camaraderie and shared our tall tales! Marty Grzasko presented long time member and board of director Frank Scicchitano a warm out-door fishing suit to keep him comfy on the Wall all winter.

The January 10th, 2018 Membership Meeting has been cancelled due to the extreme weather conditions and the fact that the streams are frozen over!
