Dry Fly Posted March 29, 2004 Posted March 29, 2004 I was walkin up the sucker today and was checkin out the water levels. the ice is off and their raging. It made me wonder aprox. when the steelhead run up the rivers such as the knife. is the steelhead run even any good on the north shore? what kind of fly or lure do you use to get em? (preferbably on a fly rod) I hav always wanted to pull one of those suckers out of a river but never tried.

Snell a #4 hook and use the loop to hold yarn egg. Golden Nugget yarn with a tiny spot of orange. Trim to a round ball the size of a dime. Cut mono with yarn egg to 24" and store them in a Pips leader holder. Fly rod and reel spooled with 10# mono. Attach your line and yarn leaders with a swivel. Attach split shot directly to the line or use a dropper line with split shot.
