No, steelhead will very, very rarely hit on the surface of the water. Some people think they do because they "jump", but they are actually porpusing.

Alrighty, i def. appreciate all of your advice, i will let you know how we did.

that is awesome but why did u post that here ?[&:]

because not many people here look on the fishing forum, etc. why do you post pictures of you and your girlfriend, or your truck, or a turkey instead of the off season or turkey forums?

i just wondered sorry if i came across as a jerk

lol you are a complete @ss

Agreed!!! Buckhunter we bought new line for leaders, my brother bought a fly fishing pole, i made sure he bought a spawn sucker fly, i bought some rooster tails, 1/6th oz i beleive in fire tiger and Rainbow. I'm gonna have to go back and get some more. I went with 1/6th oz because thats the size the package said was good for steelhead. I also bought some jigs that we can tip with maggots. Trying to follow your advice to a T.

Sounds good AH, the next 3 days will be the best 3 days of fishing around here for Steelehead, and I won't get to go. Last night, I fought one fish for 22 minutes... Biggest fish I have ever had on and it snapped me off. I was devistated.

With the rooster tails, is there a certain color you use that works well or do you use mainly flies?

u can think wat u want
