Coming into summer, my fav would be a number 4 silver blue fox or a number 4 gold buds spinner.

I've caught hundreds if not thousands of steelhead over the years on #4  blue, BlueFox's.  A close 2nd would be pink

I haven't fished in a few years but I always did well with the Blue Fox if I was casting and the old corkie, yarn and egg setup if I was bottom bouncing
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

On 21 June, 2025 the US bombed three Iranian nuclear sites and, according to the President the Iranian nuclear capability was "obliterated". Now it appears the the US is again preparing military strikes on Iran if they won't agree to abandon their nuclear program that is/was reportedly in ruins?????
Who knew that Obama winning an Nobel Peace Prize would lead to this?
