I'm happy for you.
However, brace yourself for the onslaught of HIDE THE BACKGROUND replies.

Have the steelhead entered any tribs like oshawa or duffins yet that anyone has noticed? Ive heard theyve started running in port hope and other tribs out east, but i like to stick to local rivers. Any insight would be great! Still waiting for my first Steely!

Sweet fish...
Looks like the "torpedo" type of steely:
- Crazy fast darts up and down stream
- series of 5 consecutive 3foot jumps right at hookup
- at least 2 false landings
Nice starter!
