Winter Steelhead Are Here! Photos by Mia Sheppard
"Snowy tree tops, bald eagles diving over our heads, chilly fingers, wet wool, a warm cup of coffee from a thermos, frozen guides, swinging flies, chrome steelhead, rippling water, crisp air filling my lungs. Just being in the elements around us is rejuvenating." - Mia Sheppard
With the arrival of winter, steelhead are making their way up the coast and into BC's and Oregon's rivers!
We currently have several options for anglers eager to get out of the house and onto the river....with the weather heating up, the fishing has been awesome!
1) The Vedder River in Chilliwack, BC is fishing unusually well for January and conveniently has a special running from February 11th to the 24th.
