Re: Salmon River Steelhead: Monotony And Tediousness Shattered by jeremy on January 29, 2006 http://www.fliesandfins.com | at a loss for words. dave, that steelhead is perfect. a small photo did not give it justice. as far as i am concerned. THAT IS the PERFECT STEELHEAD. flawless, big, clear fins, fresh from the lake, a small tint of color and Big. no faded dots or lines, no lamprey scars or battle scars. a stellar specimen - and an equally stellar fly fisherman. that is, to date, the best steelhead i have ever seen - bar none.
kranefly ---- "Ditto"
- when someone looks up steelhead in the dictionary --- there should be a picture of that top fish. |

Re: Salmon River Steelhead: Monotony And Tediousness Shattered by jeremy on January 29, 2006 http://www.fliesandfins.com | ps ---- > dave and nate (waterhippa and kranefly) are my fly fishing buds on the salmon river...i always know i am in good hands - dave was born and raised fly fishing the great lakes region. his knowledge of the great lakes region and the rivers and tribs is astounding and home grown. he is certainly deserving of the name "salmon river specialist" -- if you are looking to get into steelhead or understand steelhead from the ground up --- take a peak at the site that dave and kranefly run --- appropriately titled "salmon river specialists" --- (they DO NOT just fly fish the salmon river - but since it is one of the most famous rivers in the world - it was a name that they chose because everyone in the world might recognize it....also has a better ring then lets say..."oswego river specialists.....) - Enjoy.

Re: Salmon River Steelhead: Monotony And Tediousness Shattered by jeremy on January 29, 2006 http://www.fliesandfins.com | ok - this is the last comment by me i promise...
WHIP - i know your writing is as world class as your fly fishing --- so - i had posted the article and pics without even first reading it!! then after it was up and looking good - i sat back with a cofee and read your article with great anticipation. WOW!!!!! what a battle --- how sweet is that - you took a dump - went down river - handed the rod to kranes - regained your footing/composure and then kranes gave you the rod back and you were back in the fight...
unbelievable --- and, in the end, probably a much better story and experience than if that didn't happen -- certainly a fish, friend and day that you will never forget...cheers! --- only wish i coulda been there. |
