The Steelhead that ate Cleveland!

Okay, so maybe this fish didn’t actually eat Cleveland, but it’s damn near big enough to do so. Jimmy Davis caught it, as he says, “Somewhere along the West Coast,” on a pink and chartreuse Action Tail Steelhead Worm dangled under a float. After the quick grip-n-grin, the big beast was left to go about his business.

The behemoth wasn’t the only toad from the trip….

Jimmy and pal Mike Baxter teamed up for a several big boys, including this one which was probably 20+ pounds.
