Grinding, Found a couple.

Hard grind recently with the clear and low water but this time of year is the most common time of year I run into the double digit Steel.

Very nice indeed!!

beauty steel

Totally agree with big fish in the tribs this time of year even with low water. Have been hitting average size bows constant pending water conditions since early Feb....all the fish this week are spawning or spawned out...majority of the fish will be done and gone before opening day....getting the boats in this weekend.

Great fishes!!! Congrats! Love the colors on those “bucks”!!

Those are some nice ones for sure
I’ve always wanted to try for some river bows, just never got around to it. Maybe this will be the year I get my crap in order and give it a go.

Saw several redds in this section which is sad because it’s to low in the system for survival.
I caught Steel a month ago that we’re about ready to spawn so I agree and really hope they all spawn WAY before opener.
That being said I know there were many fresh Chrome hens still pure skein around. Need a warm spell to get them further up river and into prime spawning water.

Those are some beautiful fish.

The smile says it all....great fish Disco.

Do you use roe?

I do use roe. I also use jiggs, flies, soft beads, hard beads and plastics.

One of these fish came on a tiny roe bag. One came on a hard bead. I change baits very often.

I’ve never tried those hard beads. I used to do well with worms too

Nice looking steelhead Disco. Great pics

Wow, those are some beauties Disco, and I see you’ve got a little more snow than the last time
