American Steel

[aggie9]

I know I still have a long way to go to become one of the many accomplished spey anglers that frequent this board. But today some of the pieces finally came together and I was able to land my first steelhead on the swing.

It was quite an experience today after putting in a lot of time on the water without a fish to hand.

Thanks to all that have helped on the way.

The bad news - you're now much more deeply hooked than that (very impressive) hen!
