I was lucky enough to sneak out to the Olympic Peninsula last weekend in search of some slew of hatchery Steelhead that fill the rivers after Thanksgiving. I was blessed by the fishing gods to tie into this absolutely perfect wild hen….. These wild winter fish are truly in a class all there own. To hold one in your hands, is a magical experience. Almost as special as releasing them back to wild in order to try to repopulate these once teeming river systems. If you get a chance, call Jim Kerr at RainCoast Guide Service or Mike Z at Mike Z’s Guide Service. These are two outstanding, professional guides that will help you understand the beauty that exists in our amazing backyard.
