Sweet, glad the advice helped out - makes me feel good to know that I was able to help out on your great day. I have a messed up knee right now that has kept me out of the waders and away from the Salmon River - it truely is one of the best steelie rivers in the country. To hear about your good luck and that a tip from me helped is as good as getting some myself.

Great pics Rob. Glad you guys got into them. I think you and Pete should take a Tuesday off and hit the water. I'll speak to Antony for you if you'd like.

Nice looking fish. I think the first one and the last one are skamainia steel, they both have adipose fin clips and are skinny, like they are spawnouts and been in the river awhile.
