Comments: Fished the opener with a lot of success. Six of us fished opening day with a lot of success. We hooked around thirty steelheads between all of us. We landed about fifteen. The biggest was a 28 in. female. My brother than got a 26 1/2in. I went two for seven on Sat. Not a very good hook and catch rate. Yarn was the key in all colors especially chartreuse and orange. Didn't fish Sunday. Fished yesterday and landed three steelies and two browns. I did manage to land two chromers one about 20in and the other was around 21in and the last one was around 23in. ALl in all it was a great opener. We saw a lot of steelies around. My two brothers also fished yesterday. Matt caught five including a fresh 25 1/2 hen. My younger brother pete landed a 27 1/2in chromer and a couple other ones that were in the 20-24in class. HAd a great time. Will be up there again next weekend to fish it hard again. I think the water will be ok, but will have to wait and see. ! Good Luck and please release those steelhead!
Tight Lines!!
