Yesterday was a beautiful third day on the river. We remained on the Chagrin for the third day down off River road near the large pavilion and sledding hill. The river was full of tons of wildlife, ranging from frogs, turtles, snakes, and even fish! We caught two small mouth bass. One was caught using a spinning rod and a little spinner. The other was caught on a fly rod, with a suckerspawn. The water quality was excellent and visibility in the water increased several inches. The pH level seems to be getting slightly better as we move up the river and resulted in two small, small mouths. The water flow was wonderful and the water continued to get warmer throughout the day. About four or five large Steelhead swam right beside our waders while in the water. Tried to hook them but no luck. They were very uninterested and swam quickly away. They seemed to be headed north toward the lake and it seems to be the end of the season. The bass are flourishing now and growing. (hopefully) We look forward to the last couple days on the Chagrin. Hopefully we can catch up the the Steelhead on their way out.
-Happy Fishing
