Steelhead thread
« on: July 19, 2013, 10:00:16 AM »
Post up pics, tips and reports.  I am fishing the North Fork of the Lewis in the morn and will post some pics.  A buddy is going to Bonneville in the morn and will give me a report.  From what I hear it has been slow this year.

Anyone having any luck?  Lets see your pics

Been fishing the Calawah hatchery run for the last month and have 11 fish tagged. Low clear water makes it very frustrating. Find a pod of fish then throw everything you have at them, then almost give up. Tie on one last thing  and limit out in 15 minutes.

Nice fishcrazy you guys get it done!  Today was slow on the north fork only 2 caught by the same guy out of 12 bank fishers. Another couple caught in a boat under the falls.  My buddy at bonni said a few caught and all but 1 were  native.
