If you look down through the last gazillion steelhead posts you will find some great nuggets of wisdom including pics. I am not a steelhead fisherman, Yet! So can't help you much.

If you scroll down through the older posts, I started one about being new to steelhead fishing. There were alot of great tips from alot of different people and they were all great tips!

Stop by some tackle shops in Salmon and they will get you lined up with everything you need.
