Default Re: First Try Steelhead

Glad to hear your experience wasn't like mine have been.. Maybe some of the Neanderthal types have moved on. I agree 100% about going with experienced anglers or hiring a guide.. Like other fisheries, the fish are not holding everywhere, and it takes experience to know the spots that hold fish and under what conditions..as you said fly rods are the way to go.. The fly rod guys typically do better, and up here most of the locals use fly tackle.. There are some web sites where this fishery is discussed in depth by the locals that live for it, and all the information posted is typically only hours to a few days old... Like gerry said, a lot of guys fish for nothing else other than these LO steelheads. bob
