Yeah, you guys are thinking I caught a steelhead. I thought I did too, but it turned out to be a silver. I didn't mind much.
I did catch steelies but they were wannabe's.
Any day now...

Being an honorable sportsman is way more important than what you catch.

That plug, and my plug of choice these days, is a Brad's Wiggler.

Nice Juan what kind of line are you running (leader)?
Group IQ is inversely proportional to the size of the group.

A Steelhead always knows where he is going, but a Man seldom does.
