Jim and Bob from Schamburg, IL join me today for a blustery day on the river. The ever changing saga of the steelhead bite continued in my boat today. One day it is bang, bang, bang and move and today it was beat the water to a froth! Weird…so much for predictability?  Both Jim and Bob dedicated themselves to every drift- probing every rock and seam; this payed off in hook ups but the landing ratio remained skewed. We finished the day 2/8 with a third removed from the net (oops) by yours truly. Clown eggs, nuke eggs, stone flies and cross dressers produced fish today. Pictured is Jim with a great fish from this morning.
