Sorry there was so little about the steelhead fishing around here. I've been gone for a week[cool] things should pick up now. You know, someone mentioned going to Riggins, if you want numbers and not necessarily size that is a good idea. Try fishing the Little Salmon River, stay pretty low this time of year. I spent 6 months up there a couple years ago and I averaged around 5 fish a day, everything was around 26 inches and fat. The majority were indian fish so you can't keep them, but it's worth it, they're a blast! You can drift fish it pretty good until the wind picks up and then you've got to suck up a little pride and tie on a bobber rig, stay small with the jig and the bobber, maybe even just a splitshot and bait, it will work wonders. And since your there, maybe buzz down to the Clearwater for a day or two, you might get a wallhanger down there. Good luck and let us know where you go and how you did.
