I started around 10 and in the next hour I foul hooked four fish that slipped the hook almost immediately after hookup. I decided to change the spoon colour to a five of diamonds and got bit on the second cast. After a great fight I landed an eight pound hen. Over the next three hours I landed five more.. all big, bright beautiful fish . I lost two more as well that came unbuttoned at shore.

Fillets

I'm actually curing some Georgian Bay steelhead right now that a friend of mine caught this past November. Your fillets here are an even deeper orange.

I am river fishing. It had ice 20 feet out from the edge that I was standing on to cast from.
