Hey.. first time poster here..just sayn hello lettn yall know that I first opened this site about two weeks ago.have since been readin daily.and I am excited about sharing and learning on this site..have been fishn the Skagit, Stilly, Puget Sound, Neah Bay, Samish Bay and have just booked (my first) a guided trip next month to Forks ..possibly the Bogachiel..just bought a drift boat and have seen lots of posts concerning the Sauk..lookn to make some contacts around the Skagit Co area ..I live in Stanwood. Haven't yet hooked a Steelhead using drift gear other than on a spoon..i feel I am doing most things right ...just haven't got the gear in front of the right fish...tried the Stilly approximately 5 times for steelhead (used my drift boat) below the forks pulled out at I -5/ Anyone catch any steelhead on the Stilly this season? just curious ... well thanks again..I have the ability/option to call in sick and be on the river...rather quickly..
Thx again...

Welcome Saundu...Who'd you book a trip with?

The Stilly put out some fish this year, not for me though \:\(
