I heard of a few large ones in Lewis not too long ago...

They're in the process of spawning I assume....even though this wacky weather may change timing a bit. I read some of the steelhead in NY are already spawned out returning to the Lake. Only time will tell.

20,000 steelheads dropped in St Albans Bay 2 days ago on Wed. I have a good friend who watched them swim away in surfacing packs.

They're stocking the yearlings right about now I think.

Yes, they're stocking yearlings right now, little six inch fish. I stopped by the falls in North Ferrisburgh after work the other day and there were a bunch of them trying to swim up the falls. A bunch of six inch torpedos flying out of the water and crashing down into the rapids. Wicked cool!!!

Yeah, I fished it Sun and hooked up with 50 of those things. There are some in the 8-10" range too..
