Stopped to check out the Sultan. fished at High Bridge, and finally fished a little higher on the Sky. Weren't taking jigs today, so I fell victim to my old ways and ended up spoon feeding a Steelie. Looks like this one escaped a net! The one yesterday was the WORST fighting Steelhead, but today I got 1 decent run out of this Winter Buck :)

Tight Lines!

Thanks Gringo, looking forward to seeing you on the river again! MLubov5336, I'm very thankful you're not a). fish biologist, b). fishing the Skykomish with me :)

I'm going to call up Santa and if you're good this year, you might get an identification guide in your stocking; nice identification attempt though.. Summer Run Steel are usually much skinnier than Winters, and have the pink stripe.

Tight Lines!

I think mlbov5336 was referring to the identification methods used in another Skykomish report that was recently posted. Good old steelie spoons strike again!

Well first off that summer run is just as bright and chrome as these winter runs that have been showing up that we have been catching. Steelhead usually turn darker olive in color before having a pink line show up buddy. Keep up talking trash and maybe one day ill see ya out on the water and show you really how to catch a fish or two
