Took the north fork of the stilly to pound town today. Fished from 6 am to 430 and didnt even so much as have a bobber down. My buddy crackered of a native but that was the only action I seen all day. Looks like its time to switch rivers.

Re: Steelhead Reports and Pics 2012-2013
Caught #21 and #22 today. Tim and I went 4 for 4 and done by 7:45. Today was only the second time out for 2013. Have a long ways to catch up with you Danny. The pic of my fish are real bad and make the fish look much darker then what they are, and did not look at pic until after fillet or would have taken better pic. Both are bucks and both had super red meat.
Re: Steelhead Reports and Pics 2012-2013
Ok, went early this morning and got skunked, but returned after work right before dark (rare opportunity for me) and managed to hit this buck. 26" long, 13" girth. Big # 3 for me. I've now surpassed last years catch number!
