That one does have some resemblance to a steelhead. We did catch two that were definitely sea run fish. The trout were all fat and healthy but were not as bitey as I had expected. Lots of feed in the water still. They were puking up eggs and flesh when we would land them. Silvers all over the place. That spawn will be strong through early winter I would guess.

There were lots of swans down there too. More than I ever remember seeing before. That last pic I was trying to get a seal that was propped up on a rock that was just under water. He dove in just as I was taking it.
