Steelies

Post by FishBaitThe2nd » Sun Jun 10, 2012 4:24 pm

Hey guys, well these little stocker trout are fun and all. But i want to get into some real fish. Where can i get some steelies right now? I live in belfair, about 30 minutes from the skokomish. Where would be the closest place to go fishing, with a decent chance of catchin some metalheads? Thanks !

Best chance right now is lower on the Skykomish.

The Cowlitz. Or head west to the Wynoochee. Either is a good bet.

I don't think so becuase I have seen him down on the cow before at barrier and no one snags at barrier. He looks honest, plus flossers use bait casters.

I think we need to start a conversation/thread on flossing vs snagging vs drift fishing so we can really sort this out...

Agreed - please don't. Just be something us mods would have to lock down after a couple posts anyway. ](*,)

Yeah besides, there's no such thing as flossing, just fishing with a long leader....... :-" O:) :-" O:)
