DRIFTER_016 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Ahhhh yes, steelhead, I remember them. I have to console myself with another weekend of icefishing. I miss that river too. Nice chromers Mikey!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I'm surprised that when you told him you had rubbers and a rod for him, Ben didn't bolt !!!! Looks like it worked out well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trapshooter Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) Wow Mike, you made it look like I knew what I was doing!! hahaha. Great report buddy. What a fantastic summary of our day, awesome pics and vids. That was too much fun and I know we'll have a 'round two'. Isn't anybody going to poke fun at my spinning reel? lol. Honestly, steelheading/floatfishing isn't as easy as you guys make it look. I kinda felt like a fish out of water, however, I had a great teacher... with the patience of a saint!! Thanks again Mike, it was definitely a trip I'll never forget. Steve - pleasure to finally meet you. Funny that it wasn't even a fishing related event. Neil was awesome!! Everybody Knows This is Nowhere was my fav but there were a lot of great classics. Down by The River, also incredable. And I could go on, and on, and on......... Good to meet you and dave as well, Will. Edited April 18, 2009 by BenBeattie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiel Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Chris if I thought for a second you might be interested in joining you'd have been more than welcome. Next time! No worries Mike, perhaps we can hook up for some fresh fall silver this year. Love the fall silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
