Well Sunday started with our net going MIA overboard so you can imagine how much of a challenge the rest of the day was going to be for the Steel'n Silver crew. the day was a total grind we manage 3 for 5 slow slow slow! 22" steelhead and two slimmers all off the boards 117 set back water temps up around 59-62 and real cloudy light wind from the south lake was flat. good day but Champlain was the clear winner!!!
Spoon of the day Crazy Ivan (smokey Joe)

Re: Sunday Westport Hunt
Thanks for the report Chuck. A steelhead is on my bucket list. Must have been fun boating those fish without a net!!
