tons and tons of info on steelhead fishing on here. don't put your fly gear away yet, you'll good til at least december this year, step up to a heavier weight rod though, suggest minimum 6wt. i don't put mine away til at least january.

Ebay, amazon, individual manufacturer website, facebook flying tying buy and sell groups.

the vices in those kit are cheap, and usually break really quick. buy a decent one. materials are relatively cheap figure out 5 flies you want to tie, chances are, they share the same materials. i bought a kit when i first started, i still have half the materials left 3 years later.

nicely down. its ridiculous just how strong these fish are, really put your gear and patience to the test

everything they released this year had the fins clipped

you're right! thats a wild atlantic! adipose fin is intact

theres one on here from a couple of years ago, seems no one can agree whether or not its a brown or atlantic

nice brownie! :lol: :lol: i kid. beauty atlantic

was able to escape for a couple of hours one day, grabbed my fly rod and left. got to the creek, got suited up, the top half of the rod didn't match the bottom half..... top half was for a spinning rod and didn't match. was a long ride home.....

you'll want a reel with a good drag on it, but you don't need to spend more than $100 for the reel would highly recommend an echo ion reel.

new meaning to fish balls!

you probably crush the roe in your pockets lol

don't know anyone that didn't start that way.

dont forget about bare waders and streamside

for salmon i would go anywhere from 6lb to 10lb leaders. for hooks, this is where bass guys go wtf cause its its not a 1/0 size. size 6 -10 should be fine, depends whether you'r tossing skein chunks, roe bags, or worms. and if you decide you'd like to go trout, hooks 8-14 are the norm.

you don't need to spend the money on a centre pin reel right off the bat, put it towards a good rod, a spinning reel will do just as well, especially if you have one laying around the house. would go for a 10ft float rod. and if you don't want to break the bank, but want good bang for the buck...

fact is, you really won't know until you set the hook, unless you actually see the take. if its just holding, and you don't feel headshakes, chances are high its fouled, if you feel the rod bouncing on regular intervals, its a tail hook and your only chance is to break off lol when you set the...

fishing on the east side will get you kicked out eventually, you used to be able to park right next to the creek entrance and walk across a bridge to get on the rocks, but not anymore. there is a way in. just follow the path :)
