Prettiest steelhead I've ever seen

[Langenbeck]

With all the high water time to reflect. This is the prettiest big steelhead I've personally seen. Taken two yeas ago January on a coastal stream by my neighbor, Jeff Barber. Our guess was about 14 pounds. About twenty minutes later took a chrome bright fish of 8-9 pounds and looked like a half pounder compared to this fish.


Here is the other fish of 8-9 pounds that looks like a half pounder compared to the big one.

Absoutely gorgeous fish

this is likely may favorite - taken on the Grande Ronde a few years ago - 32" wild fish that came up and took a skater! It is my screen saver

That's a beautiful pristine hen. I'm in awe. Perfection.

Love the buck shot as well.

Nice going guys! Pure magic.

First attempt at posting a photo, hope it works...

One of my favorites from a coastal stream last winter.... One of the hottest, "chromiest" fish i've ever hooked up with.
