Default on the board

Clackamas somewhere above Barton, Echo DH 7130, 540 compact skagit, 12' T-14, Orange pick yer pocket (tied by yours truly), first fish I've landed on a spey rod.
I'm hooked for sure, what a rush.
This is my first entry in the SS fly challenge, didn't measure this little hen, she was maybe 28", I'm just happy to be in the game. Pardon the crappy cell phone pic.

Well done!

I did a double take on that photo... check out my entry for the 2010 summer steelhead contest and you'll find out why.

The reels are the same; can't tell on the rod, but they look similar. Are you guys sharing gear?

Nice bright steelhead!

Same reel, almost the same DH rod (mines the DH8133 rather than the DH7130).

Stevo - if you ever feel like casting the DH8133, let me know; I'd like to see how the 7wt compares to the 8wt.
