Steelhead

Met up with a friend and headed to up to notellum creek. The plan was to swing spoons for steel and thats just what we did. He caught 1 bull and 1 nice steelhead on a half/half hammered spoon. I got 2 steel, one on a copper p-line spoon and the other on a pink twitching jig. We saw dozens of steelhead in multiple runs, but could only manage 1 hook up per run, then they all would become stale. All were natives, all released with care. The visibility changed depending on what tributary we were fishing. Some tribs had 2 ft, one had 5ft vis, another trib had 8ft vis. The tribs with 2ft vis were not productive.

Glad to see you enjoying yourself. Would it be wrong to say I'm a little jealous, especially with the way our Washington fisheries are being handled right now

Nope not at all wrong river hunter. Bc isnt as jacked up as washington. Dfo has done a WAY better job managing the fisheries than the co managers in washington.
