So, I’ve been working on a couple articles today for Salmon Trout Steelheader and Fish Alaska magazines, going through my photo catalog and…BAM…I ran across this one of me and Matt “Go Home” Kinne in British Columbia a few years ago and I’ve gotta say my productivity for the day is now pretty much shot.
I mean, how’s a guy supposed to work when you’ve got B.C. steelies on the brain? Short answer: You can’t. Think I’m gonna walk down to the river now…
Holy Crap! A 30-pound steelhead on the fly!
When Andrew Fairclouth hooked, played and released the first steelhead of his life, a nice 12 pounder, there’s no way he could have known that a dozen casts later he’d make fly fishing history. But that’s exactly what happened on a spring day just a few seasons ago in northwestern British Columbia.Click here to read more…
Are you frigging kidding? A 37-pound steelhead!
All I can say about Nick English’s incredible 37-pound fly-caught steelhead from the Kispiox River is…um…well…ah….I’M NOT WORTHY! I’M NOT WORTHY!

Still time for huge B.C. steelhead!
I just got off the phone with my pal Gill McKean of West Coast Fishing Adventures in Terrace, B.C. and he told me I should hop on a plane immediately and head for Canada, where he has been absolutely whacking big steelies to 20 pounds like the 20 pounder above (on flies!) and lots of rainbows.
“It’s been nuts, eh!” said Mckean. “The other day I had 4 guys out and they had a fish hooked up literally on every cast! Of course, it’s not always like that, but we have been having some awesome late-season fishing.”

Me and “Go Home” Kinne enjoying a little double shot of adrenalin in B.C. Kinda gets you pumped for the upcoming months of steelhead fishing, doesn’t it??
