I finally got my winter steelhead. There wasn't any work today due to the extreme cold and residual snow, so rather than going back "home" I headed straight out to the river. These pictures were taken with my camera phone. I think they came out pretty good. They were caught on summer colors of orange and purple. The river level is decreasing so the clarity is improving. I got one yesterday too, so that makes three out of five in two days. I'm tentatively planning on running with the group tomorrow and after that I should start paying attention to more pressing matters. The same mindset which said that I can fish and not move on Christmas Day was behind me fishing on a snow day. And what a beautiful day it was, but cold cold cold.
