I talked to a fish and feathers officer, when I was at RW and he said they are catching them pretty steady at the mouth of the methow. If you want to go I you can ride with me.

I fished the Wallace on Saturday and lost one. Pretty decent fish from the looks of it. Last year, I hooked my one and only steelhead and lost it in that same hole. So far, it's looking like this years winter steelheading is going to be about the same... Stupid fucking steelhead.....

Better pound it hard through New Years as rumor has it most Puget Sound rivers are going to get shut down for lack of returning fish to the hatcheries.
Life's short - fish hard!

RE:Tough time steelheading
Ok, I have new hours at work. If you are going to be down there new years eve, I might head down, not sure. Hit me up on my email and let me know. I washed my Patriots jacket for you to wear if you like. lolflinginpooh wrote:Im gonna actually head down tomorrow night and stay over night again. Ill email ya Jens and see whats up.
gpc has to wear it too. If you remember that hole we were fishing, if you can somehow get that spot where the longlining owner of the Cow was drifting, then you'll catch one I am sure of it.

RE:Tough time steelheading
Went on the Wenatchee today. Caught 2 natives... I know im not suppose to do it but I caught, measured and weighed a 34" 10lb 5oz metalhead! The other was about 24" looked about a 5lber. I didn't weigh it. I got a few pics of the big one just after I released it and one of the smaller one.
So the attachment is the larger one sorry its hard to see... He is in about a foot of water just after releasing him.
