A couple days chasin' steel...

This sign announces that you are in the Oak Orchard fishing access area, note the nice snow squall in the backgraound.



Dick, Steve, Dan & Lee invited me along for their annual spring steelhead trip to New York. It is a five day event for the regulars, but yours truly had to duck out on Wednesday to return for review of month end results at work.

Steve and Dan model one of the large steelhead fooled mostly with eggs and wooly buggers.

Check out the whopper below!


Dick gets in on the action with a fine specimen.



Every member of the expedition landed at least one steelhead and all had the pleasure of releasing multiple world class suckers of both the standard and striped variety.

Not to shabby at all.
