Steelhead continue to push upstream while anglers finding fishable ice are reporting a lot of success with both panfish and trout.

While steelhead fishing in the rivers has been tough, ice anglers have been doing well with walleye, bowfin, and muskellunge.

Safe ice is beginning to make an appearance and while it does, moving water has been producing bluegill, yellow perch muskellunge, walleye and trout.

With the recent snow, not many are out fishing but those willing to brave the conditions should find fish holding in deeper pockets with slow-moving water.

Despite the recent cold snap that has brought fishing to a standstill in some regions, rivers are producing some nice smallmouth bass and walleye action.

Striped bass, smallmouth bass and walleye walleye have been hitting live bait while steelhead have been hitting egg sacs in tributaries and up into the streams.

Bass anglers are seeing an increase in top-water action while the muskellunge and walleye continue to be found near confluence and along the edges of moving water.

Recent rainfall and warmer temperatures have picked up both the trout and panfish bite.

Many rivers and creeks have been recently stocked with trout for anglers to catch.

The walleye bite has picked up during the early morning and late evening hours.
