A real kick there. The next step is about a yard long steelhead at the top of some rapids. Toss in 100 yards to the opposite bank. I'll pass on 50 to 60 trout for just one steelhead.
While I still enjoy trout fishing, if I'm rigged for steelhead I get pissed when a 20 inch trout hooks up.
Anyway, now you've done it, and have reason to go for another 30 years.
Kind of ironic isn't: "pissed" with a 20 inch trout hook up while rigged for steelies. Folks would die to catch 20 inch trout regularly. But I hear ya!
My big thrill outside of Atlantic Salmon are tiny little trout in a high country creek I have crawl into.
It's never too late to take up the fly rod!
