A deformed "looks like" a steelhead caught locally that has biologists baffled! See larger pictures and MORE stories Here Josh Dickinson holding fish here Josh Dickinson holding fish These fish show up sporadically in L. Ontario, I have not heard of any in L. Erie. I have seen other pics., read reports, & personally seen these fish. I know for a fact one turned up on one of the piers at Olcott Harbor last fall, & I personally hooked 1 at Burt Dam last October that was only about 17 or 18 in., long- I lost it at my feet, but it definitely had a HUGE tail on it. They seem to be regular steelhead w/ unusually large fins & tails. I read a thread on the Lakeontariounited board summer or fall of 2006 that had several different pictures & biologic theories about these fish, but it seems they predominantly show up in Western L. Ontario tribs with no real valid explanation. Submitted By Cynthia Roswick 09/01/07	Mike Dickinson with his Lake Erie Walleye! GO HERE for a great Story from Mike!
