1st winter..when will it be?

I thought foe sure it was in the bag, but the fish turhed out to be my largest searun cutty to date...23" 4+lbs....
Very nice that things a brutus.
 
Looks like a few we caught on the Alsea a couple years ago. Thought they were winters but they had to much color. Ours were hatchery fish I think, must have flushed out of the hatchery. :D
 
Hate to be bumping my old post but I just got back from being out of town several days and I'm still not seeing a picture of a winter steelhead . Or, did I miss it? Maybe I should give folks a chance to get back from their holiday fishing and make their reports.
 
I havent seen any on this forum yet, have seen a few on others. Gonna give my first shot on Tues.
 
How about the first springer? lol
 
I almost got it today, but couldnt landed it!!! Man it was so bright!!!
 
Hooked one sat but it was a short encounter . Lost it as soon as I realized he was on
 
am I gonna have to go do it? sheesh

I guess so!!! That creek is tough!!
 
Went on my first 'steelhead quest' of the winter. Went 1 for 2 with this little guy, and hooked another fish in the 8-10lb class that come undone pretty quick... had to much line out and didn't get a good hook set.

Both hit imitation eggs, yarn, and anise.

Back at it again tomorrow.
