Five Keys to Catching Steelhead
Trout
Steelhead. Sea-run
trout. Call them what you want, these silver beasts
are among the best fighters you'll ever tussle with
in a freshwater stream -- if you can find them.
Steelhead are an elusive species because of the
harsh winter conditions they thrive in along with
the unpredictable cycle of the spawn. Here's a list
of five classic steelhead tips... |

G.Loomis
Eastfork
Fly
Reel
Review |
 |
When you hear the name
G.Loomis the first thing that comes to mind is
high quality fly rods. Which in my opinion
G.Loomis is a
leader in the fly rod category. We decided to
take a sneak peak at their line of fly reels and
see if they happen to share the same quality.
We are referring to
G.Loomis' Eastfork Series of
Fly Reels, and for under $200
they are the best
fly reels on the market right now at this price
range. We found this reel to stand up to reels
from different manufactures that were twice the
price. G.Loomis is offering a great reel at an
affordable price that is most certainly worth
checking out!...Continued |

Winter
trout fishing can be one of the most frustrating
and most rewarding fly fishing experiences
you'll ever encounter. You can be accused of
being crazy when people see you standing waist
deep in a river constantly removing ice from
your rod guides, but it's hard to notice the
cold when you're catching trout.
A common mistake many people make when winter
trout fishing is to think like a fisherman
instead of thinking like a trout. A fly pattern
that appeals to a fisherman's eye isn't always
the fly that appeals to a trout's eye. Perhaps
the most legendary fly fisherman of all time,
Gary Lafontaine, created some of the strangest
looking, yet most effective flies. Gary's
patterns were the result of countless hours
observing trout and insects and designing
patterns around those observations. The flies
were designed to appeal to trout rather than to
catch the attention of a would be fly fisherman
in a fly shop.
To catch more fish during winter
trout fishing excursions, you
need to understand what is
taking place in the trout's
environment and adjust your
fishing accordingly. During
winter.... Continued

Getting Started with Steelhead
Fishing |
|
 Before
heading out to the river to start fishing for steelhead
it is important to think about what you are going to use
for bait and how you are going to set up your equipment.
While there are many methods of steelhead fishing, drift
fishing is the most common. This method produces bites
for anglers on a regular basis and requires only a
weight, sink and a hook. Despite the fact that the
steelhead is a large, aggressive fish, it can still be
hard for the anglers to detect when one bites the line
so it is important to pay constant attention.
For someone who is new
to steelhead fishing,
the drift method may not
be the best method to
start out with. Jig
fishing, may be a better
method. The jig fishing
method is similar to
traditional fishing...Continued |
