My self and another gentlemen were above Watt this afternoon. No grabs my self and didn’t see anything on his line. Did see a fish pushing up a riffle on the other side, but couldn’t tell if it was a...
My uncle and I are on our 2nd year swinging and chasing steel head, but this will be our first trip away from the LAR. Heading up to the Eel for the 24th - 28th. There is a storm supposed to come in...
Came across this little guy today. What are your thoughts when an otter is hanging out in the water you’re fishing.
Can’t get the photo to upload but it’s a shiner white 14” steelhead. Not what...
Swung a black and blue OCD below the Arden ponds for about 3 hours this morning. Didn’t see anything. Only my second year chasing and swinging so take it with a grain of salt.
Baby, fingerling, 6"r
Hit the sunrise run for a bit this morning. No action swinging a black OCD. Flowsdropped from 7k to 6k while I was out there. Left at 10am. Visibility about 10". A lot of salmon turds running around.
Bill, is this info on the web anywhere? I follow the releases from Nimbus damn, but that does not match what you have here. Just trying to keep my self educated. :) Thanks for the heads up.
So this storm that's coming through is putting some snow in the mountains but seems we're missing some here in the valley? Watching the release and the lake level, anyone have any thoughts as far as...
My uncle and I fished the inside of the island at sunrise hard on the opener. Everyone else was on the channel. A lot of people nymphing, Jim and I were swinging. I had a black OCD, jim had a pink...
I can hold my own... ;) Sailor bar it is! If anyone else is out there, I'll be guy in a bright blue jacket and Patagonia hat.
I have a chance of getting out several times between Thursday and Sunday. I'll post up any observations. I will be around the Arden ponds area until the opener, after that, I'm not sure if I should...
Keep talking Steelies. This January will make my first full year chasing and swinging for Steelhead. It's been a great learning experience but there's so much change and so much to learn with the...
On the river swinging. It's been slow, hence why I'm checking the boards. Nothing this morning between my uncle and I. Some salmon still moving in, a lot of them getting ready to move onto their next...
Im on the 6s, IOS 10 broke it for me.
Just a heads up for iphone users. The app is not working with the new update yet. If you rely on fish head, wait to update!
Appreciate the info you all have provided. I have a feeling we will go to the Hoopa/Willow area. It's my uncle's (Jim) first year swinging, and my first year on any water other than the American,...
So last year was my first year throwing the Spey Rod around the American, and going to step up in water for the first time. Going up to the Trinity for a 3-day and camping at Douglas city campground....
Is lowering the flows bad for the salmon/steelhead run?
So last year was my first year chasing chrome, and did it all right here on the American. I was a successful a few times but want to branch out to other waters. Two years ago when I moved back to Sac...
In all seriousness, at what flows does it become "loss of hope" in seeing/catching steel? Just wondering if I should consider winter steel over and start thinks about my mountain streams.
So as stated earlier, this is mine, and my uncles first year fishing for steelhead. We never fisher the river, always went up and fished the smaller streams. We've probable put 10 days a peice in on...
I would consider my self an advanced fly fisher and Tyer, but the steelhead world is a whole new ball game. I'm reading a couple books to include Dec Hogans, and I understand that the fly pattern...
Thanks Bill, I WAS planning on going in the morning... LoL
I was out all morning. Got off the river at 1230. Flows were right at 1700, but visibility was maybe 16". Water is dirtier than it was over the weekend. Only saw one fish. It was moving up and pretty...
