Epic! I felt this video. It took me two seasons to catch my first steelie.. seeing the float finally drop, and feeling those first head shakes instead of a snag on the other end- pure enjoyment! Pure excitement. It’s something I wish everyone experienced 😂. Great video brother, loved this.
Really enjoyed the video! This is my first winter targeting steelhead. I watched every steelhead fishing video I could find, and have now put in 60 hours at a few local rivers (SW WA). I’ve hooked into 5, and landed 3 so far. These are a blast to catch!
5/8 oz. hammered spoon in the 70's gave way to side planners & plugs of the 80's, to bobbers & side drifting of the 90's. Caught steelhead throughout, but sold my sled in the 2000's when the rivers went dry due to netting, dams & poor management. I miss those freezing winter mornings in December hooking up hard fought fish, &since moved to salt. Great video my man---congrats!!!
great video man love that u showed the grind ive been doing a series for the last two years of videos showing my bad days just grinding it out. really gotta put that effort in but when it pays off its sooo soo sweet
@@KeepCastingNW I have such a addiction for steelhead now i think about winter steelhead season all year I'm gonna try for some summer run steelhead this year as well it's been over 10 years since I fished for them but I have a nearby river with a good summer run we are having a pretty good return year in oregon but due to life getting in the way i havent got to go nearly as much as id hope for
good job! i was worried i was about to watch you take hundreds of casts from the same spot. good job making sure to fish a run out and then move on. subbed up.
Good video. When you slid into that spot, I had a feeling you would hookup. Fishing those fast shoots can produce, but the tailout you fished at the end is a much better place to target fish. The best thing you did was not give up! Well done
Yo! I'm by no means an expert or even experienced, but I caught my fish floating an 1/8oz jig with a pink worm. The best advice I got was to keep moving. It's cliche, but covering the water efficiently and not being too precious is important. Finding a willing fish is the most difficult part. Thanks for watching!
The way I approached it was to try to explore new areas each visit, pay attention to what successful anglers are doing when you are able to (presentations, depth, what type of water, etc), fish your top 2 or 3 presentations through the run, and then move on. Covering lots of water to find willing fish is a must!
Got my hands on one recently, I’m looking forward to learning 🫡

Good stuff, I am willing to bet you are going to get some heat from people saying you're blowing up spots... Actually you've shown spots I haven't seen yet which means you did put boots on the ground on that river system to get your fish. Given how little audience your channel has I am not too concerned at this point, I certainly hope this channel ain't going to turn into the typical sponsorship / selling crap madness of today's social media. Keep up the good work and don't prostitute yourself for a bunch of free hooks in exchange of advertising!
Hey man, understand you’re new to this but if you look on other peoples channels, no RU-vidrs post systems struggling with returns. It has a bigger negative effect than you realize at your point in the hobby. Only saying this because it’s a great video and I bet you’ll get a ton of views if you keep it up - tight lines
Not sure what you're referring to, none of the clips in this video are from rivers that aren't regularly featured on other local channels. Also I haven't named or indicated any other spots than the vedder in this. Don't snitch on your own spots! DM me or email or something if you want to talk further
