First time steekhead

My 8 year old son and i are planning to come to elk creek this weekend for the first time. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Such as where to stay, what to use, and good places to take my son fishing. Any help would be great. Thank you.

    if you want any sort of large numbers of fish to stand over go to the access or mouth's of streams but it'll be crowded, otherwise start walking and find a hole somewhere upstream from all the people that has some fish in it

    cleos, krocodiles, flies, egg sacs, single eggs... etc., anything you put on should catch a fish eventually

    there's a hotel thread somewhere on the forum with round-about prices, use the search to find it

    go back to spain

    to catch more steelhead, should you put the hook through the krocodiles eyes or the tail? does BAC sell them or can i just net a few at the elk access?

    i would stick to the smaller streams you have a better chance in my opinion of it not being as crowded. i hope you and your son have a great time

    REMEMBER HOW MUCH FUN YOUR FIRST BIG ONE WAS. TAKE A KID FISHING
