Ok Ok Ok so 5 means alot of fish and a fantastic day but I labeled this a 5 even though I lost two jigs, one float, and a fly because I caught my first steelhead today!! After three years of trying I finally got it and I am pretty happy, it was a nice chrome hen about 8-10 pounds and was a native so she got revived and sent on her way but the fact that I finally did it made it a 5 star day for me!!

Congrats I got my first this year as well. So did you catch the steelhead fever?

Congratulations on your first steelhead!

BTW, I would not call it a 5 star day. Your first steelhead ever is at least a 10 star day. Steelhead earn double points.

That is so great! Congratulations! I have still never been able to catch a steelhead in all my trials. I'll never give up, though.

I would have given it a ten for sure as it was a rush and great to get that monkey off my back. I have had steelhead fever since I started three years ago, now it is like steelhead full blown flu cause I can't stop thinking about fighting another one! Strong fish!
