Chartering a fishing expedition is a great way to experience the world class fishing available in the Chautauqua-Lake Erie Region. For the chance to reel in trophy-size walleye and bass enjoy the deep-water angling along the cliffs of Lake Erie. Every fall, fly fishers can be seen in the tributary systems of Lake Erie on hunt for the migratory rainbow trout called “steelhead.” Cast a line on inland lakes such as Chautauqua Lake to catch walleye, bass, muskellunge and several species of panfish.
