Orleans County

Nice flows had made for good steelhead action in the Oak and even opened up flows in the other area tribs.

The steelhead action by winter-time standards has been good.

Some hunkered post-spawn browns, kings and steelhead can provide on-and-off action for light line-drifters.

Different successful techniques in use – fly, spin or float for spawning and post spawn browns and fresh steelhead.

Anglers are still into brown trout and now seeing a few more steelhead. Atlantic salmon action is now more spread out, but hook-ups can still be expected.

There are great opportunities for brown trout and Atlantic salmon and steelhead angling this time of the year.

The passing cold front and snowy conditions may have made for a little tougher fishing action lately, but plenty of anglers are still doing good on Atlantics on the Oak.

The cooler weather and good water flows are making for more cooperative biting fish, with anglers making good drifts and swings.
