Steelhead (non-yak)

N. Fork Stilly a while back. Large chartruese/flame orange spin n' glow, red yarn, whole sandshrimp. Drift fishing in chest waders on a 17 degree morning and I tripped wading in the pre-dawn dark and my rt. arm
fleece jacket froze solid within minutes. Many memories.

I got a chance to get out and bank fish yesterday afternoon and realed in this dandy wild fish on the Columbia above Rocky Reach Dam.  thought i would share   

Hey congrats man!  Does look like a dandy.  What'd you get 'em on?
