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
