Steelhead

[mpagnan]

What would be the ideal set-up (line strength, lures etc) for fishing steelhead?

 

Thanks again,

 

Pags

gonna have to give us a little more than that.

 

Where are you fishing, river/lake/creek/harbour?

 

Floatfishing/bottom bouncing?

[mpagnan]

Pretty much new to the game. How about along Bronte and the Credit?

[kemper]

do a search of the forums for similar questions, it will turn up a whole bunch of great threads with tons of information

Float fishing rig ( best used in river)

 

8 pound main line 4 gram float, 2 bb split shoot directly under float, 2 n1 split shot spread out a few inches apart, 3 n4 split shoot also spread out evenly, (add more weight if needed) micro swivel connected to 8 lb line on one side and 2 ft of 5-6 pound fluorocarbon leader on the other side of swivel with a number 12 egg hook at the end drift roe, worm and pink worms to name a few. Good luck

Thanks for the info.

 

Now for the steelhead. they can be fished for year around correct? Also, are the two main tribs in this area Bronte and Credit? Or are there some I'm missing?

[mpagnan]

I agree...but the pressure is on! I can't believe all the fabulous pictures being thrown around here. I honestly wouldn't know what to do if I caught something like that.

Take note of the regs before you head out on where and when you can and cannot fish...

Crowds there’s snow its cold the only people out there are the guys that love what they do. Don’t discourage someone from trying something new. Pags this type of fishing takes time to learn but when you do learn it's extremely fun and rewarding so head out put in your time and the fish will come.
