Steelhead-Post Your Pictures Here

4E30B7A0-27EB-4CE4-AB72-708F3531F2DB.jpeg This is my favourite Steelhead pic. I’ve caught my fair share of Steelhead but I really wanted to catch one in Nanaimo river as I grew up there and had never fished it. I have been told that the river used to have a good run with some big fish way back in the day. The run size dropped dramatically and the river was closed for a long time but they opened a little while back. I made it my goal to catch one that year. They call them the fish of a 1000 casts and this truly was. I fished it every weekend starting in January and finally nailed it in March lol.
