Spring is finally here!


My Maldives trip photo's are not in yet! So you guy's have to wait a little bit longer! But i hope it will be worth the wait.

But after working on my new house for a couple of weeks it was time to go out and try to find some winter run Steelhead!

It has been very cold here in Terrace lately with temperatures going to minus -20c in some days.

Sind's last week we finally has some warmer weather plus 4c and some light rain.
The rivers are still very low and clear. The snow on the ground needs to melt! There is still between 2 and 3 feet of snow on the ground at this time.

It took some time to get to the river and walk thru a couple feet of snow, but we where rewarded with steelhead! I landed a very nice big old Buck that has been in the river for a while now. And Derek lost one after a down river unstopable run! All and all it was a nice day! But the ice and snow needs to melt to get the river up, and bring in some new fresh steelhead.

It will be a interesting year with the excessive snow we have lately!

And now i have to get back at the house again.


In a couple of weeks we start guiding again!
