Teddy said it best

“Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty… I have never in my life envied a human being who led an easy life. I have envied a great many people who led difficult lives and led them well.” 
― Theodore Roosevelt

I’m not suggesting steelhead fishing should be painful, but through effort, the rewards of success is never greater. Picture is Ben with a well earned steelhead with RQ guide Jay Allen.
