OCBS Member Jeff Liskay will make a presentation on fishing for smallmouth bass on Presque Isle which is one of the top destinations for great spring fishing action.

Jeff has over 35 years of experience fishing for smallmouth in Presque Isle and steelhead alley and has a lot of great information to share with us.

Jeff is one of our premiere speakers this year that you do not want to miss.

We will also have informative handouts of Presque Isle maps so you can get an idea of the great fishing opportunities availabe to us in this wonderful Erie, PA state park.
