I would certainly agree with all that has been said, especially when it comes to steelhead. To put this in perspective, I have been on two guided steelhead trips do far this year, one for three days in California and a four day trip to Washington. On both occasions the guides were diligent, making casting corrections, putting us on good holding water. On neither occasion did I catch or even hook a steelhead and I probably spent more than 10 times what you spent for one day. On the second trip there were six anglers, five of which were experienced steelhead fishermen and no fish were landed, per the guides only the fourth time this has happened in 20 years. It happens. The comment about false expectations are very true, on one occasion I read a report of a trip I had been on and the number of hook ups and the number I experienced were somewhat different.
