I so want to chime in with the details right now, but will give it one more day.   This was my first trip out for 2014, had lost some of the flame to go for steel.  Been having fun chasing ducks.  There definitely is something addictive about chrome!  Small or large.

around 10 pound buck.  As far as length, no idea, I measure my fish by pounds not length.

Oh no...sounds like it's going over 20!  Maybe 22 :chuckle:

Wait until you break the 25 pound mark.  You had better have a spare pair of undies with you.   :chuckle:

I almost needed new shorts after my first fly caught steelhead, which was bigger than this and a nate.  It was a wussy fish though, came in like it was trained.  I had lost a 8lb fish earlier that day that really put the battle to me.  I'm beginning to think there's no diff between nates and hatch fish on how they fight, if they are fresh from the salt.

But, the ultimate fight, big buck chums on a 15' spey rod.  They use the leverage against you and make you  :'(

So when I'm at the boat ramp and see all the undies thrown in the bushes it means Polar Bear had a good fishing trip?  :dunno:

A few late Februaries ago I saw an enormous one on the Sol Duc.  At first I thought it was a submerged log, then got closer and thought it was an early giant springer--about the size of some of the kings I've seen in the rivers in AK.  Nope, it was a steely.   :yike:
