Snow Squal Me - 02/19/01 07:12 AM
Hey, I want some of that snow to fall down our way too. I love 4X4ing in the drifts. I also like going over the N. Oregon coast range to fish steelhead with snow on the banks because there is less people fishing. ...
So here's a good tip for you guys to fish when the snow's covering most everything and the water is still clear. Paint your waders bright white and get a white parka on over your fishing vest. Duck tape of a few little branches with evergreen needs intact onto your parka. Camo'd out like that you can walk slowly right up to the steelhead and 'dabble' fish a jig or egg cluster right in it's face. Or not. I have never tried this. Just sounded like a good idea. ... Steve
