The Steelies and Coho's are here!

Bas with a highly prized skeena river steelhead.


Dick with a chromer of a coho.






Gert with a screamer of a skeena river steelhead.













One of many chromer coho!







Always a surprise when netting a skeena river fish! Is it a coho or steelhead?







Gerrit with a nice chum!









A typical skeena river day! In search of steelhead.







It took a while for me to post a new message on my blog because of the long day's of guiding.
After we closed the fishing for chums we now only focus on chrome steelies and coho's.
Last week we had some novice spey anglers and they had a blast! After landing lots of chums it was time to the real deal! Skeena steelhead!
They quickly learned that flyfishing for steelhead is totaly diffrent then what they have experianced before! The speed, jumps and balistic behaviour of those fresh skeena steelies is from a other world! The managed to land some realy nice chrome steelies in the 10 lb range. But they hooked 5 over, or close to the 20lb range! But those fish were just to much to handle!
Nothing beats a fresh chrome skeena river steelhead on the fly!
