My Halloween treat! STEEL!

Post by goodtimesfishing » Fri Oct 31, 2014 4:38 pm

Hit the river this morning and picked up a couple silvers still in good shape, a steelhead and a dolly. Dolly went back in unharmed. The steelhead almost ended up back in the water also! As I pulled it from the water my leader snapped and as the fish is flipping and flopping on the ground along the edge of the water, I dove on top of the steelhead saving it from going back in the water. Great way to start my Halloween. [thumbsup]

AJFishdude- The pic of the steelhead I caught after you left that day is in the thread "steelhead 2014-2015".
