How is everyone? I'm new to the forums.

Long story short...I'm in my 20's and got a job in the Lewiston, ID, and have decided to take up steelhead and salmon fishing. I am very new to the sport. I've fished for smaller spieces of fish my whole life so I am not a new to fishing, only new to steelhead and salmon fishing.

Can anyone from/or has fished in the area provide some intel as to what I will need to gear up for the upcoming steelhead season? Maybe recommendations on good fishing spots on the Clearwater River. I am a bank fisherman, I prefer it over a boat/can't afford one.

I know I can do a Google search on methods, baits, and tactics. However, I'd rather ask people who have actually had success in the area.

Include details please!
