Hit the Okanogan River this afternoon in hopes of hooking up with some steel. Lots of Kings still in the river though you cannot fish for them legally. Spent three hours swinging a large black articulated leech through likely looking runs and was fortunate enough to get my first steelhead of the year- a 6/7lb hatchery hen. Was trying for them, but 2 kings took the leech as well as three rainbows between 12-15 inches. A good day on the river.

Thanks for the report. I'll report if I have some luck, going after steelheads on the Okanogan as well.

Hi, we fished 4 times this past week on the Okanogan but no luck, tried a variety of lures. Ran into 2 men also fishing just below us and they caught 1 steelhead, about a 6 pounder. Looking forward to the next trip and getting my first river steelhead ever! Cheryl
