I'm still saying ya got it all wrong......... about the pin outfit.

Now the Hennessy------ that's something different.

Well, none of the above worked!!!  But, I think it was the day more than the bait.  We didn't see many caught at all on Wednesday, October 19th.  I remember seeing steelheads fighting there up way up the creeks all around you when I was younger, but we didn't see one fish moving that day.

There were a few being caught, but all the deeper holes we tried we heavily fished and nothing were getting pulled out of them.

We did catch a small one on an egg sac and a possible strike on a chartreuse rooster tail.

It was a good day, we spoke to several old timers up there and gained some knowledge on holes.  We'll be up again.  Thanks for everyone's suggestions.

FLATFISH have outdone themselves for me everytime I use them. Also white trout worms trimmed
ORIGINAL: Loomis

Use anything and everything.

As far as motion lures, it is hard to beat a flatfish.  Use the smaller ones F-4 size.  3" Gulp minnows have also proved themselves this year for grouped up fish in slow water.  Use a size 8 hook through just a sliver in the nose, fish weightless and let it dart/sit in a bunch of fish, the more spooked they are the better they take in this situation so don't worry about plopping it in easy.  We did best on Smelt, Rainbow and Silver Pearl.

Sacs are a mainstay no matter what the color of water, if clearer tie smaller.  Get yourself a few yards of petticoat mesh from Wal-Mart fabric department, better and cheaper than the spawn netting they sell, just don't get carried away and make yourself a skirt w it.

I always laughed at the idea of trout worms for steelhead, especially pink. I bought some this morning - pink of course - and absolutely crushed fish this afternoon like I never have before.
