this weekends steelheading (nice fish):

Recommended Posts

Got lucky with a beautiful day, the forecast was calling for snow storms, but fortunately they missed us to the south. It was bitter cold, but the sun was shining and the fishing was the best I've ever had.

I went 24 for 32, with two fish that measured 30", and two more that went 28".

It took us a while to find what was working, but once we did the fishing was non-stop.

Here's a few of the highlights:

Re: this weekends steelheading (nice fish):

Sounds like you had about the same day we had up here last week. On a river that doesn't get much of a steelie run a guy went 20-30. I went 5-9 in only a few hours.

Glad to hear you murdered them though. Sounds like it's going real good just about everywhere. I have to get down there sometime.

Thanks for sharing!
