Heard Hawg quest show yesterday was on the cowlitz river for winter runs but unfortunately I missed it but who cares because I made my own hawg quest. Hooked 2 landed a 13.76lb chrome summer steelhead on a silver spoon, I thought it was a springer by how it bit and fought. Lost one on a nightmare jig, jumped like 6 times and spit the hook about 5 feet in mid air. Water rose about 6 inches yesterday really turning on the bite. Saw 5 steelhead and 7 springers hooked, some really nice looking ones, too. Nce day out as well and not too many people except I heard blue ck was crowded.
