Is it worth it to get into steelheading?

Sorry for the late reply been working non stop trying to get some extra change for a reel.

Thanks Stacy! I will check those videos out when I get back to my computer.




Here's a poll, what class reel? I have always bought bigger reels than I needed not sure why I guess I have always just figured getting the larger reels for the same price as the small ones. Anyways I was in cabelas playing with the 4000 size reels and the guy at the counter said I will never need anything that big that a 3000 is big enough. Does it really matter what size? I might look like a blow hard on the river with a 4000 size reel but I am hoping that I could also use this rod for some bigger game fishing and figuring the 4000 would just be a nice safety. I don't know if the rod I got would work for pike/musky/tiger musky but I want to start fishing for them. They don't run like steelhead but I have seen a tiger pull my cousins 3000 class reel almost to the end of its spool. Even if the rod wouldn't work it would be nice to be able to use the reel for both kinds of fishing untill I can get more gear.
