CANT WAIT!
Looking back over my Youtube Videos i am starting to get really anxious for winter steelhead again! salmon are fun and all, but after 50 fish days, hooking up isn't the same as hooking into a monster 15+lb wild steelhead that makes your heart race and hands shake!
Figured i'd post a video from last year to get everyone excited about steelhead season. Video is from me and Nate last year on the OP fighting a MONSTER wild hawg steelhead!

Re: CANT WAIT!
Yep, that was my secret spot on the Hoh, love that river. Wild steelhead are a ways away though! I'm still stoked about big OP hawg kings for now. But there is no question that steelhead are going to be awesome this year. I love a good wilderness steelhead trip! That fish was definitely a hawg though! Those nates are a different breed for sure.
Re: CANT WAIT!
Not gonna say anything, but i'm pretty sure i know where that is. Great water on the upper.

Re: CANT WAIT!
nice, I have been tying up some nice plain jane looking jigs that I think will work great for those fish out there, guess we are just going to have to see huh.fishenfreak wrote: haha im gonna get some vids for sure, theres one hole where im gonna stick my camera out on a stick, and hopefully get a steelhead eating the eggs on video, only one hole i can do it in, thinking it might work, would be badass!
btw is it easier to cross below the log jam than to cross the 2 other branches on the other side to get to the slot above the mouth, that thing just looks fishier and fishier every time I see it.
