OK - I confess, Although I fish about 70 times a year it's all been salmon and I haven't fished for steelhead since high-school 22 years ago. Wasn't expecting much but went out yesterday morning and nailed 2 nice winter runs of 7 and 11 lbs in a small north-sound river I grew up fishing. A hell of a welcome back to the game!! Better add steelhead gear as a line item to my monthly budget.

BTW - caught the fish with float/eggs set about 4 feet deep.
