Lake Erie: Streams were high and muddy Thursday and, with rain in the forecast, could remain unfishable for several more days. Although some creeks, such as Walnut, were yielding steelhead Wednesday, many anglers made a wasted trip, and Poor Richard's advises calling or checking conditions online before driving to Erie.
