Short video I put together regarding wild steelhead. It has been great seeing so much support lately at the grays harbour meetings and over the internet to make some real change with netting and management. Keep up the support everyone!

Somebody else has gotta be catching a few steelhead lately? I guess the weather hasnt helped recently. Had to cut the trip short and come home last weekend when the rivers blew sky high, but had a double digit day just as the rivers began to go... Heres a couple purty ones before I had to head home. Patiently awaiting it to STOP raining
