It is only about 2 hours over to Guerneville from Sacramento?
Jeff Putnam told me that those Steelhead are a mix of hatchery and wild but all fight really well because they are close to the ocean.

There has finally been some better reports of big adult fish finally moving up the past few days. My brother got a nice hen, his first steelhead, this morning in Monte Rio, we’re going to float the river tomorrow and see how we do. It was very funny as I've been trying to get him into steelhead fishing for years, and he is not a real serious fisherman. He was messing around under the bridge with a spinning rod and a little Cleo, and hooked and landed after a 10 minute fight a good 8-9 lb wild hen on his second or third cast. Sent me a picture with a smug expression like “whats so hard about this?” I was mostly stoked for him but a little pissed off. Don't know how to post pics but will try to do so.
Your question was answered in the middle of the paragraph, "He was messing around under the bridge with a spinning rod and a little Cleo,...."

We floated from Guerneville to Monte Rio today, didn't hook anything but a sucker. Saw a couple fish roll. Only fish I saw hooked or heard of was one hatchery buck from a drift boat, gear fishing. Was told by several boats that the mouth had closed. Water visibility is good.
