Lots of good trips but two that I won't forget.

1. Nisqually years ago when the crowds were small and the fishing hot. Three casts for three Steelhead. One chrome bright, one with a strip and one that had spawned. That was one hot river years ago.

2. South Fork Nooksack when it was open for Summer Run Steelhead. Hooked eighteen Chrome bright fish and landed thirteen of them. All in about two hours or less. Just got lucky and hit a big school of them. Was getting a fish on almost every cast. My heart was beating so fast I thought I was going to have a heart attack. As sore as my arm was and my heart was beating I just couldn't help myself by stopping. I finally forced myself to stop and take a break after about two hours!
