Nice fish.

I fish Great Lakes "Steelhead", some people dont consider them steelhead because they dont migrate to salt water. In the Great Lakesriver systems steelhead can be caught 12mounths out of the year.

I used to fish the Yuba river, northeast of Sacramento, CA... Nice fishing...

I also tried the Salmon river in Pulaski, NY, but have been thrown off by watching locals snag fish out of the rivers with bare hooks tied to 100 lb mono dragging the bottom.

I heard there are some great spots in the tributaries of Lake Ontario.
