you ain’t kidding it’s more versatile. You can follow the contour of the stream bottom by just lowering and raising your rodtip. You can jiggle streamers and nymphs, drift eggs and nymphs, with or without an indicator. I’m still surprised how many people don’t use polarized glasses. H3O has polar clear lenses that are sick. I can wear them first thing in the morning until dark and still spot fish and takes.
this looks so sick. last couple years i keep sayin ima go up and get my first steelhead but i never end up goin🤣 this might be the year looks to much fun
why do great lakes people call lake run rainbows steelhead? i fish for lake run fish and ocean run fish a lot .. and there is a difference between the two.. great lakes people always call their lake run fish steel head but other places that have lake run trout dont do that .. why do they think they are steelhead?
Great Lakes salmon are still salmon so why aren’t Great Lakes steelhead still steelhead??? Obviously steelhead fishing is way different when they are ocean run but they are still the same strain of fish. Thanks for watching!
@@uramag7 fair enough. I get they are not the same, but I typically refer to them as “steelhead” simply because that’s the norm around here in the Great Lakes region.
I explain why. For example in the McCloud river in California they are two native strains of rainbow trout. Both are native and the same species, the difference is that one strain is resident , not migratory and lives the entire life cicle in the river , and the other strain , which is called steelhead migrates to the ocean and run back in the river to spwan. The same in many rivers of British Columbia in Canada, but most of them they're migratory. So they introduced the steelhead strain into the great lakes and they behave exactly the same as the ones that run into the Pacific ocean.Some of course they hybridized with resdent rainbows and the strain is a little different. The offspring of these, they are usually migratory as well , specially because those creeks don't have the necessary food supply or the water gets to warm in summer. But it's related to the strain , so they are well called steelhead wherever they have been inteoduced.They also the ones with the migratory genes ( steelhead) they look different . They're also in some freshwater watersheds that rainbows don't have steelhead strain but they have to migrate into rivers to spawn.Those the ones called lake run rainbows and not steelhead, because they don't have steelhead genes , it's a different strain even though, the same species.
Thanks for watching! Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe if you enjoyed!
Wow , so many fish.
Btw when a fish is hooked on the outside of the opposite side of the mouth, it most likely was flossed.
That's awesome man! I was up there in January. Got my first steelhead and know I'm hooked! Coming back end of March!

@@troutmasteroutdoors because steelhead aren't steelhead they are rainbow trout... some rainbow trout go to the ocean .. those ones are steelhead
