Beautiful.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

They 're so cool looking when they put their spawning colors on. That's a gorgeous fish. I'm jealous.

I had to know what kind of cell phone he used to get this great of a picture.... so I opened the file in Photoshop and checked the File Info, Camera Data. Apparently the LG VX9200 has a very nice built-in camera!!! Makes me wonder how my iPhone would have compared....
He snapped this picture at 11:22 am.
He told me he only fished from 10:00 am - 12:30 pm and there was only one other boat on the river.... that's my idea of a perfect maiden voyage! Sleep in, drive 16 minutes from the house to the boat ramp, hook three Steelhead including this beaut, and get an amazing photo of it! The only thing that would have made it better would have been if he had INVITED ME TO JOIN HIM!!!! Such a putz......
