Been a month since i went to the great salmon river in challis idaho. But been a little busy and lazy to post this. I know its not much to do with utah flyfishing but thought I would share this any way. Any of you that get the chance to fish for steelhead dont pass up the oppertunity. I made it up for three days last month hooked up 24 times and managed to get 9 of these b run hogs in my hands. definatly some of the biggest and hardest to land fish i have caught. The fish I caught ranged from 37in 17lb to 24in about 5lb the one pictured below i brought home to put in the smoker (delicious) if you happen to make it next year 8wt rod and 10lb leader is bare min. anyway its a great time and worth the trip.
