I haven't caught a steelhead since last June.  :-[



Oh, wait, there aren't any steelhead in Thailand.  ;)



Guess I'll have to wait until April. Sounds like I haven't missed much the past two winters.

Tangles, I saw one wild caught today. Heard one report of a hatchery taken further down. Met lots of anglers with pouty lips... everyone feels the same. Visibility was a little better in the upper river.

Is it just me or is the Steelie fishing on the Chedder getting WORSE AND WORSE every year?? Apparently other systems in the LM are actually having a good year for Steelhead this year....hmmm

Year before last was really good on the Vedder wasn't it? I wouldn't say that other systems are having great years either from what I have heard. Up North and the Island are also hurting.

Not sure whats going on. But Vedder isn't producing during the times when It most likely should be.

Iv talked to many different rods, and being Mid Feburary most haven't even hit the double digit mark yet. That shows a tough year for sure.
