We caught 7 steelhead in Trail Creek harbor on 7/4 trolling crankbaits. All were 28-30 inches, about 8-10 lbs. Some folks on the pier also had fish. We couldn't find any outside the lighthouse/breakwall in open water...all were in the harbor.

The magnificence of the natural beauty surrounding the Ditch would knock my socks off -- US Steel, smoke stacks belching, beautiful downtown Gary, landfills, rip rap, stratified multi-colored layers hanging in the choked air, and other wonders of nature. Awe inspiring environment.
