We are headed to chase the steelies with flys this coming Thursday through Sunday. It's only our second time for steelhead. Any reports and or tips are greatly appreciated!
Two of my buddies went up Sunday. Hit the lower fly zone. Water was at 500 and the bite was on. They did very well.  :thumbup_smilie: :thumbup_smilie:

The hatchery released their fish last week.  The bad news was there were only half as many fish as usual.  The good news was that they were gorgeous, not a white mark on them.  It reinforces what I have always said, they should close the opening when they have enough fish and let them spawn in the brook or river.  When they are not crowded they don't damage themselves.  They can stagger the opening to get fish that spawn at different times.  Not sure what that means about how long they will stay, especially in the high water, but they were healthy fish.
