Obviously one of my favorite fisheries.  The river has changed so much with private property access and such.   The water is still the same.   The 80s were unreal.   I have literally caught thousands of steelhead on those waters.

I could only dream that they open the Similkameen back up as well.

Had a lot of fun up there 25 years ago

I can't remember the last time i fished for Steelhead.
