First: I read all the jig tips with great interest being a dyed in the wool bait fisherman. However since I sneak out of the office for lunch to try the north fork I decided to use jigs only so I won't go back to the office smelling like eggs/shrimp. Today I caught my first steelie on a jig. And like it was said, this fish nailed it. Black and Pink with mylar. Got the fish cleaned and still made it back to work on time.
Second: Special thanks to HOGTIDE for the info on the Weatherby sale. I tried my damndest to snare one but I was to late. But the possibility was as invigorating as looking at a hole full of fish that wouldn't bite.
Third: thanks to Hammer BoB and Pilar for the suggestions on the boat steering....I have got it freed up and am still looking for "Cable Life".

Congratulations on your first jig caught Steelhead. Catching Steelhead on jigs is a lot of fun. Fish on

Sorry how that gun deal worked out for you OLC. I actually went back the following day to pick up another one, should I happened to be lucky enough...I thought I could offer it to you if you liked the caliber, and if not, oh heck...I'd just have to keep another Weatherby. Anyway, as it worked out, the salesman told me after I left, all of the guys in sporting goods bought them up, immediately. Looks like it turned out to be a G I Joes Sale for their own employees???
