Salmon and steelhead bite similar stuff, but the presentations are usually pretty different, and I've only personally encountered one late coho while targeting steelhead on the Nooch in Dec.-Feb. I'm pretty sure it survived the 10 seconds it was hooked before breaking my steelhead leader like it was a noodle. I think the "you fish when we fish" thing is playing a part in this, but as I said, as long as the QIN isn't fishing to protect salmon, I'll accept not fishing to protect salmon. [/quote]

Interesting because I have never caught one, maybe because I fish "Run-n-Gun". I would guess things will change soon after this blowout.
