GBW Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hey all. I was wondering if anyone has ever had luck in the tribbs with minnows instead of roe and or worms? I ask as I have a few preserved pinheads and shinners and I'm just itching to get into my 1st steelhead! Thanks in advance. Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest steel'n'esox Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 They will difinately take minnows, I tried them about 20 years ago when I like you had some emerald shiners left over, very similar and shape and appearance as smelt, got fish on them did not have any luck with mud minnows left over from quinte though. As kemper says you might be pleasantly suprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burtess Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Thats why white jigs work well, shiners will work well on fresh fish in from the lake and also later on the drop backs that are looking for more meat to recouperate after spawning.
