Steelhead behavior is strange. Had one suck my sandshrimp in its mouth, I waited for a tug, then it spit out the sandshrimp.

I might cast and cast for an hour then one steelhead will peel off of formation and look at my bait. Had one chase my bait as I was retrieving towards shore and I should have stopped reeling. Couldn't get it to bite.

One evening saw 1, 2, 3, 4, and then about a dozen steelhead move up into and out of the hole. Probably another dozen until they were all gone before it started getting dark.

Strange I never caught any in the afternoon or evening so far this summer.

I hooked the nice buck and the other 3 steelhead kinda ran around the hole and took off upstream.

Sometimes the fish will just run around in circles. Strange stuff.
