Title: Steelhead run, record numbers predicted.
Post by: Galpster on August 11, 2010, 08:51:53 AM: I heard from a very reliable source that the steelhead numbers are supposed to be thru the roof.

In Idaho that is.

Anyone planning a trip to the clearwater?

Real funny they said it was going to be a record run of salmon this year on the Columiba, right after they stiffed everyone for a 25.00 fee for fishing it.
