Yes you are correct but I lost another steelhead as the fish caught me by surprise and I did not set the hook firmly enough. ::)

Rain woke me up at about 4:30 this morning... doesn't seem like it has been hard since.  Still 5 or so degrees out here to. :)

Judging by the photos I've seen so far, it looks like someone is having an exceptionally good day on the river. :o ::) :P ;D

I can't go look at the river this morning being that I'm at work. But it was raining when I went to bed and it's been raining pretty good since I got up... So maybe Chris will be able to give an update.  :-\
