Steelhead & Brown Trout Video

Laurenslegend, Shaq and I headed out in search of chrome after a slow winter. In three days of fishing since January first I had a total of one small brown trout to my credit. Shaq was in the same boat as me. Laurenslegend was up for the first time since the fall so he had a clean slate. Shaq and Laurenslegend had searched far and wide for steel the day before with no luck. I met them the next day on the water and we started out slowly, but it turned out to be a great day. We ended up picking at fish all day long with each of us having little runs of fish followed by long periods of flogging the water. It felt nice to feel the pull of steelhead and some of the browns to ring in the spring. Now we are all looking forward to the next outing and the continued pull of these great fish. One thing that is funny about making fly fishing videos is that the video makes the day look like it was fish after fish. The reality was that we hit some fish here and a few fish there picking away at them. The net affect was a good day on the water with each of us hooking up multiple times. Its funny how the video can't capture the sometimes hours of time that go between hookups. I personally will fish for hours to have a day where I get to

hook and land several large steelhead and browns.
