Well, I guess I could say now that my patience percervered finally! I caught my very first steelhead today(guessed by a fellow seasoned angler at 12 lbs and wild -was carefully released) and what suprised me was I actually caught it on a fly! smile (It is the only stellhead gear set up I own$) I'm still in shock. I feel like I just bungee jumped or something! I was about to throw in the towel on fly fishing for steelhead. Many people have told me I was wasting my time.... I was beginning to believe them...I guess I can say it works now. Hey to everyone who wrote a first steelhead story on Fishmaster2003's post -thanks, I'll remember my first forever. what
I think I might be hooked! I learned one thing today,... Never give up!!! <img border="0" alt="[Goldfish]" title="" src="graemlins/goldfish.gif" />
