-Early Season Steelhead (12-1-09)-

Postby hollywood on Wed Dec 02, 2009 12:17 pm

We went out for some early winter steelhead action and ended up hooking a few fish!! :D We hooked three steelhead and one coho.

Here is a nice coho that came on a pink UV Vibra Micro Jig. I hooked the first steelhead of the day on an olive UV Vibra Micro Jig, unfortunately it came off at the bank!!

There are some fish around although I think we hooked two stray summer steelhead the other steelhead looked to be a winter. Looks like it might be a good winter steelhead season. :thumbup:
