kemper Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 Hit an easter trib today with low expectations due to low and gin clear water. Well im glad I went anyways, it was a great day on the water! It started off with 3 or 4 smaller brown trout, and then in a run about 4 feet deep my float goes down and i set the hook into a 10 pound plus female steelhead. After quite the battle, which involved me chest deep in water removing the line from a tree while still fighting the fish he pulled drag 50 feet downstream into a beaver dam, and well you know what happens after that. After I stopped shaking long enough to tie a new lead on, I managed to hook into my PB brown, a hog a just shy of 30 inches! Hopefully Ill be back tomorrow with a report of getting that big hen that broke me off today. tightlines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
