Steelhead

Post by bagman »

Any one who knows me knows how passionate I am about steelhead. I have pursued them for many years in LC tribs and I am finally starting to see the results we have been waiting for. So while most of you were fishing the shootout I was on one of my favorite streams doing my thing. This fish was 26 1/2ins. and although I did not weigh it my guess would be easily 7 plus lbs. Its my 6th steelhead this year over 5lbs from a trib with I hope many more to come

Nice job on the chase. Greater job on the landing. Beauty of a fish.

umm... entering that in the shootout would have been bad??! THAT would have taken home the trophy as long it was a Champlain trib!

Great Champlain Steelhead! I sure do want to hook up with one of those out on open water.
Thanks for the look.
Catch and serve with lemon.

I recognize that rod and reel. I saw it in action one day last year and I must say you're a very talented guy. Awesome technique you have with that rod, can't say I've ever seen anything like it. Glad to see its paying off!!!
