SUCCESS!!! Dan and Matt, father and son from Portland, OR, were in Sitka visiting family last week and we went out for a morning of steelhead fishing. Fishing was a little slow, but still a great day. Matt hooked and landed his first steelhead on the fly and all of us could not have been more happy. Matt is studying fishery resources in college, just like I did, so it was fun to compare stories. Dan hooked a steelhead briefly, but it did what steelhead do so well, fought to get free and it did.

We had a real nice day fishing with Jim and Tim for wily Tongass National Forest STEELHEAD. The guys saw a bunch of fish, hooked a few and each landed a trophy. Also, they each released their fish so others can catch them next year.

Stan and Frank were up in Sitka for a week to fish steelhead. We had some great days fly fishing for steelhead on the small rivers on Baranof and Chichagof Islands. The guys hooked plenty of steelhead each day they fished and landed fish every day. They also caught rainbow trout, cutthroat trout and Dolly Varden. We accessed all the rivers by boat on the saltwater and by float plane Harris Aircraft Services, Inc. Can’t wait to fish with them again.

Steelhead fishing can be some of the most challenging species to go after but it can also be the most rewarding. Dan was up with us this week and had all aspects of steelheading. We had a memorable three days chasing these crazy good fish.

We had an awesome day out on the water with Rich and Emma from Maine. They were both first time steelheaders and each landed a steelhead and hooked a few others.

Had some good ole boys up from Arkansas this week. We had a lot of good laughs, saw a bunch of steelhead, hooked some beauties and landed some real nice ones. Larry and AJ taught me some good tricks and it sure was fun showing them our waters. Simms Fishing Products Costa Sunglasses Harris Aircraft Services, Inc.
