27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

Steelhead Nov 1 - 2 [Page: 1, 2] Fresh hen. A real brute for the PA creeks. 28" long and it put me into the backing in ten seconds and took me down river 150 yards from where I hooked this gorgeous hen. This is a 27" fish caught about an hour after the 28" hog. Today all my fish were hooked on a #16 Pheasant Tail with a woven Mylar wing case. It is very exciting to see the indicator just twitch a fraction and you lift the rod tip and 6 - 8 pounds of silver muscle erupts from the creek and comes down with a huge crash. Another strong hen. This fish just would not quit and besides running almost into the backing it took me a good ten minutes to slide it up on the gravel.

Epic Steelhead

Same fish, different pose. Another big steelhead taken on a swung fly. Another retro steelhead picture. See the red egg fly in the jaw. The rod is a boron graphite made by Ted Simroe. It is 8' 6" for a #8. I still have this rod and it has landed hundreds of king and coho salmon 12# - 30#. Fighting a big steelhead! You can see a stringer on the log in the water in the foreground. There is a 10# hen on the stringer. At the time I was still keeping fish and would cull out bigger fish for smaller, easier to carry, steelhead. The water on the far side was great holding water and there was a deep trough all along that side.

The Uncompahgre tailwaters near camp (a small footbridge allows anglers to fish both sides of the stream without attempting a difficult crossing.) Being a good Colorado tailwater with ample access, the Uncompahgre gets its share of fishing pressure.
