Stamp River Steelies are in!!!

[steelheadqueen]

Hey Guys! Steelhead are entering the Stamp right now... really hard to get them since water is extremely low and clear but I managed to get a hatchery below the bucket nice 14 lb doe on roe. Looks like a little rain will be the ticket!!! Good luck!

I was originally from the mainland and used to get 18-20 lbers on the Chahalis but i have to admit I love the island fishing way better... pristine rivers here, with the vedder and Chahalis always waiting for claybank mirk to clear when it rains lol cheers....

An 18-20 pound Steelhead on any river other than the Thompson or Skeena would be very rare. Chehalis?

Here's a 20ish lber in the Stamp from days of yore. 'Twas a battle royale.
I know, I know ..."What's with the wool glove AJ?" - I was young, dumb, had no idea the wool took the protective slime off back then.
