That was worth the wait!

Capt. Dave and myself hosted the Greg Winsor group of Chicago, for a cold day of swinging for steelhead. Water temperatures are dropping but remain warm for the calendar date. The river flow dropped about 100cfs today and is back to about where it has been–about 1080cfs. Low clear water is perfect for swinging–even with moderate sink heads the steelhead will see your fly. Leech patterns and natural sculpins patterns are bring pulls most days. Pictured is Drew McNally with a terrific buck that took a swung leech this afternoon.
