Re: First Try Steelhead
 
I haven't used them for Steelhead, but have caught Browns and salmon as along as a mans leg in the finger lakes feeder stream on tiny 1 inch hot pink Mr twisters, on a small 1/16 or 1/32 jig head... I used plain lead heads, and I heard gold is even better.. Spring Lake run rainbows hit this sort of thing consistently in the FL creeks,,I'm sure the Steelheads in LO would hit them as well.. Its a good presentation for a spin fisherman that can't stay near the bottom rocks and you don't need a noodle rod to fish them.. Certainly worth a try.. Trout and LL salmon seem to react to small hot red and pink lures of all types .. The tiny hot pink twisters have caught me a ton of fish over the decades.. Big Smallmouth, and all kinds of panfish love them as well... bob
