Fishing Tip of the Month

After spawning, Steelhead swim with their head to the current and slowly back down the river. There two major places the fish are most likely to be taken. The first is in the fast water going into a pool. Start in the fast water and fish down into the pool until the push of water has dissipated. The second is on the break of an eddy where the fast and slow water meet. By recognizing the proper water to fish and at what time of year can be the difference between a successful day and one that is unproductive.
