Thanks Stan. Those are some beasts. In the part about the steelhead it says "the best part is that it is that it was a hatchery fish". Some of these guys don't know that you can usually keep hatchery fish, but that wild fish usually(sometimes must) be released. So that means they could keep the fish and get it mounted.

That would be great to catch for the spring loc derby Good job on catching that on lite tackle

The Smith river is on the border of California and Oregon. Hope 2011 is a good year for Kings, Coho out west again.

Hatchery fish can be kept and wild fish must be released back unharmed

Hey Stan, have the ponds fill up out there yet? Hope there not fill in with mud. Happy New Year.

Maybe down in southern California they have. Up here in the northern mountains they stay clean and clear. Our pond is kind of small, it's only 360 miles of shore line

Those 5 year olds do get a little bigger than our East coast transplants!
