Andrea's First Steelhead

Andrea Charlton, April Vokey and Rob Vodola invited me to go fishing with them on the Kalum River on May 4, 2009. We hooked steelhead in just about every pool we stopped to fish but we lost them all...until Andrea landed this fish. This was her first Steelhead landed ever! The video clip tells a story, I think.

Andrea's friend April Vokey is a fishing guide based out of Chilliwack, BC. In addition to fish guiding, April specializes in fly-casting instructionals, workshops, wilderness camps and ladies clothing. Her company is Flygal Ventures www.flygal.ca

I just about titled this video clip "Screaming Fly Gals" but I could not do it out of respect for the gals. I think the girls were a little embarrassed with ALL their screaming...but I understand, it is a gal thing...anyway, LANDING a Steelhead should have ALL of us (male or female) screaming! Congrats Andrea on landing your first Steelhead!

No prob Snatchez had a good time thats a Rushton Landing net catch and release mesh its the proper way to safley land the fish they dont get banged up on the rocks like when anglers or guides try to beach the fish I have had alot of people emailing asking where to get one so just google Rushton Landing nets I have a few of them!! This makes sure all the fish are realeased with 100% survival rate so we can keep the runs strong and enjoy the fishery for a long time
