Rich wouldn't know a turn if it hit 'em in the face!

Both of you should stick to cupcake competitions!

We ran up stream after work. Fished from 6pm until now ... Nothing, but fried chicken on the bank for dinner. Not a complete loss. Time to pack up.

summer steelhead are finicky critters. they might bite a blue tip rainbow for weeks and within an hour wont touch one and it has to be brass, two hours latter it has to be nickle.

some days they push deeper as the sun comes out, some days shallower.

Location and knowing what they want every hour is what puts the fish in the box. we had 9 fish on today in 4 hours, but they wouldn't touch what we caught them on all week, but thats the fun of fishing, figuring it all out.

Cupcake competitions! I have seen you eat cake, pie, and lets not forget muffins, we all know who the chow hound is Glen.
By the way, which one of the above would you like me to bring for you on our next fishing trip.

Sorry to hijack the thread but we went one for one yesterday on the Columbia. Native steelhead around 10 lbs. The fish hit 2 minutes into the day and that was all we had. Saw a few fish caught around us at the shad rack.

Well Im going to abandon the Kwik fish, and spinners and switch to Brads wigglers and Storm wiggle warts. Now when you fish them off anchor do you use weight? what dropper length? what leader lenght? and when you troll up river do you just flat line them?
