Find a god friend who will teach you. Or read! Bill Herzog’s "Color Guide to Drift Fishing" It is, in my opinion, the best how-to steelhead book ever written. I did one titled "Float Fishing for Steelhead” that's not too bad either. Subscribe to Salmon Trout Steelheader and read every word. Fish every chance you get and PAY ATTENTION to every detail. Especially pay attention to those who catch fish. Go fish where there are lots of fish. Places like Reiter Ponds and Blue Creek. No they are not esoterically perfect but you will see fish caught and have a good chance of hooking one yourself. Book as many trips as possible with guides who will teach as well as fish. Good luck. It’s a strange addiction. And it only gets worse.
