Washington Spring Steelhead Fishing: It Puts The Yarn In Its Mouth
I just got back from my final Winter Run Steelhead trip of the year. Much better than last my last trip in Februrary. The rain had finally come raising water levels and bringing in fresh pods of big fish. Over the course of my three day expedition I hooked 13 Steelhead and landed 10. Not too bad. The three that were lost were very very very large and broke my heart with long distance releases. The First day I got there I had a few hours to kill go I hiked up into the Bogachiel State Park and tried to hunt a few down to no avail. I did meet a wild Litawanina, Rolandis, who gave meet 3 sips of Jameson before I left the park.
The Bogachiel State Park is filled with every shade fo green imaginable.
We floated with Jim Kerr on the Sol Duc Friday and he was very proud of his new anchor. Very natural.
The Mighty Pacific Ocean near the Reservation. I had to drive down there the morning of my departure, I mean how often do you get to see the pacific Ocean? This resulted in me being late for my flight which resulted in me speeding which resulted in a $150.00 speeding ticket.
Sunset on the lower Hohsky Doh. The Team hooked 8 and landed 5 on the Hoh that day.
RAINDOGGGGGG.
Brazda with a 28-30 lber he caught a few days before I got there.
Big Lower Hoh Buck that came to the net in a rather wild way. I had to extract this from video (hence the grainyness).
More pics and video to follow. Kyle Barrus took some amazing photos that I should have within the next week.
yeah duudaa, gotta love it out there. Kerr’s anchor is sweet, glad you had a good journey. That second pic makes me feel incredibly uncomfortable.
Yeah that pic was a bit creepy. had to take it down. Haaha. That anchor was too much he said he was going to get a piece of vine for an anchor rope to make it even more camo.
Nice work man, beautiful fish look forward to seeing more fotos and the vid…
Dude,
I upgraded my anchor, the new one is ever more betterer. It was good to meet you Joe. Drop me a line, I may need some help from your Cobra stye skills down south.
