Olympic Peninsula Steelhead Fly Fishing Report – 8/20/10

Summer steelheading has been good. There are some fish in the Bogachiel, Calawah, and Sol Duc, but the water is really low. We have been sight casting a lot in the Quillayute System. TheÊHoh RiverÊis in good shape and there are salmon and steelhead in. Ravae spent two days with me on the Hoh and she went 3 for 6 on summer steelies. She landed her first steelhead ever, a nice 12 pound native. Dark colored leeches, traditional spey flies, caddis, stone flies, and egg patterns are good choices on the Peninsula right now.
