Thats frickin insane. Looks worse than Sockeye at the papermill dam.

This is my biggest steel from this winter. It was 36"x18".

1977 steelhead caught with my 7 foot South Bend fiberglass rod, Garcia Mitchell 410 reel, 10 lb mono and a Roostertail spinner. I got a Field & Stream button and certificate for this one. It was a kelt and I killed it as I didn't know any better at the time. It really didn't taste that good. Heck, I even had hair on my head still ! Caught from a small stream near Victoria.

I knew I could finally agree with you on something holmes!!

Summer runs from some years back.
The good old days when I used to catch one or two in the evening just for something to do.

Take care.

November 20, 1977

Caught this big doe on November 20, 1977 on a Brass & Orange Crocodile spoon on my second cast into the pool. On the first cast it made three attemps to get the spoon, tearing up the pool but missing it each time. This is about as fresh as they come and tasted just great!

You obviously haven't seen Peg Leg bar in Chilliwack during a sockeye opening. Great shots of the steelhead fellas - back in the day!
