2010 Grande Ronde Fall Steelhead Fishing Wrap Up




The fall season came to an abrupt halt on Wednesday just before the big Thanksgiving 2010  holiday weekend.  The fishing this fall was again full of all the great reasons we have to come to love chasing these remarkable fish during the splendid fall colors. While not the fantastic catch rates we saw last fall, fish was still very fine to say the least.  This year we saw the average size of fish grow dramatically from recent years. Most of the steelhead have been in the 28" and above this year, compared to the normal 5 pounders we are a custom too. This year was also the season of the wild fish.  With over a two to one native catch rate, we touched many wild fish.  WILD BIG FISH.  I wish I could show you pics of the 37" and twin 35" hogs that were landed in the middle of November. The river is frozen as you can see in the pic.  Maybe we will be fishing soon. Look for my Holiday special blog coming this week to get in on a great present for the fisherman in your family.....GO ZAGS!
