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
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat."

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