Well we've spent the last two days on the Stilliguamish fly fishing for steelhead, and man are these fish fun. We've been nymphing attractors with flashabou and orange bunny fur, and swinging smolt patterns with pretty good success. 3 fish one day, 3 another and they have been the craziest jumpiest fish I've seen in a while. When they get hooked, it's straight up and out of the water, and you can hear the click drag in your ears for an hour after the adrenaline wears off.

It's been lower so we've been running a bit lighter, so when we incidentally hook the numerous Dollies swimming about they put up a valiant fight. It has been a lot of fun, and I'd like to thank my guys that put up with the super sleet rain and thunder that we had today and making it a great day anyways.
