No, I'm gonna try with my flyrod tomorrow though! I've only got a 6 wt so it might be a good fight! Anybody know what some good flies are, i've got some big black and purple wooly buggers with eggheads, or maybe some medium size stoneflys?
Here's a couple pics, we are staying in Stanley at Jerry's tonight, so i'm gonna try fishing up here higher tomorrow, the river looked awesome coming up here!
DAY TWO:
I didn't notice you said you were fishing at night! that's pretty hardcore! I just found empty holes with our group and got into some pretty hot catching!
Sunday was an awesome day for me! I started fishing at 730 and we left at 2, I landed 11 steelies! They were all about the same size...right around 25inches. I was hoping for some more fatties like yesterday but they were still nice fish! Most weren't clipped, I managed three decent hatchery fish. I switched up my gear a lot and that's what seemed to keep the bite on, they were hangin' in the area and wanted to see something new is my most educated guess...the rest of our group only landed 3 fish.
All in all for my first trip I am way happy. I landed 18 steelhead in about 16 hours of fishing! Addicted....for life!
