I love that about the steelies too. If you're not paying attention they'll rip the rod right out of your hands.

I love to fish, but I would give up any type of fishing if I had to, just to be able to chase those fall winter and spring steelies!! Never targeted the skams before, although I here they're quite the battlers also!

My biggest is a 12.5 pound female outta the grand, along with numerous 8, 9 and 10 pounders. Even she/they would get pulled around the river by a 6 pound steelie!!!

I hope to get up that way in the near future. My salmon stock is now empty!! I need to get over and catch a few with the Pentwater Angler. I will see if Dad has any to smoke up, but I think he gave it all to me. I figure it is a good trade for those tastey morsels you find in the woods every year!!
