                   If there ever was a 2 week timeframe in steelhead history to be on the Salmon River, it's the next 2 weeks...I've been stuck on my property like a prison for the last 5 weeks and have heard the great reports, but today I got to witness it for the second time in 3 days. The first one was Friday am at the town rapiids and now in Altmar, saw many steelies hooked up while I was over there.  LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!!  This is going to be an epic week!!!!! ;D :thumbup_smilie: :clapping:

I would have had a bigger day day Snag, if I wasn't drooling on myself. I was having A LOT of trouble with hooks pulling out, line snapping off, If these big dime bright bullets weren't fighting me so hard! The big ones are there way!

I hooked around 20 this morning with a friend from Oswego, He hooked about 30. it was singles and doubles for us all morning long. then Floatfisher came down around 9:30am, with a couple of his friends and it still was silly. I netted one of his Fish and then I was locked in and then his friend locked into one. it slowed down about 11:30 then moved up to the bottom staircase and there they where! All bright fish!! My arm is cramping! :D

They are so hard to land in this warm water. The big ones forget it. Every fish I hook that was over 10lbs went back to the lake! lol. these fish are sliver and white no pink tint at all. There coming your way soon. I will say in Two days altmar will be smoking!
