Be persistent Chris...try lots of different types of water, especially on the vedder. Often the fish will hold in spots you don't normally expect to find them in with the added pressure this river "enjoys". Birdman is right, often steelheaders don't get their first fish for an entire season or even more. Having said that, I know of several fishermen this year alone, and some in years prior that get one in their first few trips out...
It would be beneficial if you managed to do a trip out for them with someone that has caught their fair share of steelies over the years. Watch what they do, and where they fish...should increase your learning curve.
hope that helps,
rib
