well for me it all depends on the water conditions clear water i like to use firetail nightmare and a blue chinookie,
and for semi murky water ill use a steelhead eye candy witch is pink and a sand shrimp which is orange.
and on nasty water conditions ..................well **** it i dont really fish........if i do i will plunk close to the shore.

My favorite color for steelhead is when they are mostly silver with just a blush of a pink stripe on their side. The gill plate has a deeper rosy pink blush than the stripe. Beautiful creation. :geek:

I've been fishing the Sky on the bank every weekend for the last few months and I still cannot find many fish or these holes you speak of. :( You really got it dialed in.

Been tasting the Sky:chef: since 1968 first on intertubes:colors: floating the upper of course before safety and care:colors: .
Then 6 drift boats and now on my 3rd sled but have hiked every seam and turned every rock and If I see a see a person I press deeper and farther when my health and lack of supports that.:eye:
Biggest lesson to learn to be a fish Hog or trophy hunter nature and humans dont support the same soil.:cheers:
To be a angler not just a fisherman you must earn it and many days we hiked 6-8 miles to get 2 fish and with much risk.:brilsmurf :bigsmurf:
Nerve damage know limits my hikes but I still stay away from the cupcakes and I have over 10 frosty holes in the upper river my holy waters that only get touched by 2 - 7 guys all week unlike the mid and lower that is pounded by hundreds daily#-o :-$ :-&
Tight Lines fish on = the upper is the (gift):bounce: the lower is a boat ride after December 31st!:cheers:
Groups and rigs I never even look:-$ AND DONT THINK THERE IS NOT PIGS IN THE SKY THIS CHROME MONSTER UPPER SKY BUCK CAME IN AT (26.6 LBS):cheers: and TAKEN IN JAN WITH PINK YARN RED GAMA AND A NIGHTCRAWLER:colors: AND 45 MINUTES TO BEAT HIM ON 10 lb Maxima Clear!:compress:

That fish was caught on the Sky this summer. The fish I caught before the floods was a cookie cutter summer run.
