Salmon Trout Steelheader Podcast salmontroutsteelheader

Is it just a high-water year? OR could this be the start of an epic Summer Steelhead run? Thanks to Lamiglas Fishing Rods for sponsoring this episode! Make sure you check out the LX96MS, HS94MS and GP10MS (Or MC for the casting models!) The numbers at Willamette Falls are looking like we might have something special going on this year...are you ready?

An article by Darryl Choronzey explains their findings while watching Cameras underwater trolling the Great Lakes. Although this article is focused on Lake Trout - this section discusses other species habits as well for following trolled lures in the open Lake - Steelhead (Rainbow Trout), Coho Salmon, Chinook Salmon and Lake Trout are discussed.

Something often overlooked is recording what lures and methods did not work and how long you attempted to catch fish with these items. This is how my teammates finally convinced me that meat rigs weren’t producing as well as I thought.
