I’ve been fishing for steelhead with lures for almost forty years. I still remember my first time going down to the river to cast Shad-Rap type lures in the pools below the spawning steelhead and catching a few big steelheads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I still remember the hard hits, and I still remember seeing some big steelhead chase my lure across the pool, only to turn away at the bank at the last second. It was very exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
