Pennsylvania Angler & Boater - November/December 2014 - 11

There are many varieties of egg patterns that
can fool steelhead. Picking the correct pattern
can be a challenge for even the seasoned
steelhead angler. In high, dirty or off-color
water, fish larger and brighter patterns. Fish
will see them more easily and can key in on
the bright colors. Brighter patterns also work
well in low light conditions. Smaller more
natural patterns work well in clear and
low water conditions and in bright
sunshine. Choose the size of your egg
patterns by comparing them to natural
versions. Steelhead eggs are small compared
to salmon eggs, and sucker spawn is even
smaller. If fish are keying in on natural eggs,
size down your presentation to be closer to the
real thing. Salmon and Brown Trout eggs can
sometimes be present in Erie tributaries in the
fall, and sucker and steelhead eggs are more
often found in the spring.

This steelhead took a Glo Bug in Walnut Creek, Erie County.

COLD WATER
KILLS!

WEAR YOUR
LIFE JACKET!

Boaters are required by law to wear a life jacket
on boats less than 16 feet in length or any canoe or
kayak during the cold weather months from
November 1 through April 30.
Life jackets save lives year-round. In addition to this regulation,
the Commission strongly encourages all boaters to wear their
life jackets at all times during the other months of the year.

MAKE SURE YOUR
LIFE JACKET FITS!

For a life jacket to work properly, not only
does it need to be on your body, it should
fit properly as well. A properly fitting life
jacket is more comfortable (meaning you are
more likely to wear it) but more important,
it functions better. Life jackets that are too
small or large can ride up or even come off
when you are in the water.
It's easy to check a conventional life jacket
for proper fit-just put it on. The jacket should
fit you snugly with all zippers, straps, ties and
snaps correctly secured. With a partner behind
you, raise your arms like you are signaling a
touchdown in a football game. Have the partner lift the jacket by the shoulders. The jacket
should come no higher than your chin. If the
jacket covers your face or comes off-that's
what would happen in the water. In this case,
tighten the straps or use a smaller size.
