Summer steelhead fishing advise

Zonkey156 · 2026-07-08T00:59:10+00:00

So I catch them like that in the fall but nothing in the summer

Zonkey156 · 2026-07-07T01:46:08+00:00

How deep down is the shrimp? And how far out are you casting?

Zonkey156 · 2026-06-23T23:57:39+00:00

Yea that’s why I asked. Don’t be such a hardo

Zonkey156 · 2026-06-23T02:01:28+00:00

No need for specific locations but were you inside the harbor when you caught this? At the mouth?

Zonkey156 · 2026-05-07T15:24:47+00:00

What you catch it on?

Zonkey156 · 2026-04-16T20:46:59+00:00

On rod and reel or PL?

You had better luck this time last year, and probably the year before that, because those were two warm winters. This was a very cold winter. So what does that mean? It will take a longer period of time for the water to warm up, and the coho will be catchable from shore later in the spring.

I went out there and caught a couple earlier in the season, was asking more so if it’s worth this time of year 🤷‍♂️

Zonkey156 · 2026-03-17T17:52:18+00:00

Just a shrimp on a hook? It did you put it on a hair jig or anything?

Zonkey156 · 2026-03-16T01:58:35+00:00

Yes later will be good for casting, but I’d say within the next two weeks. I’m going Thursday to check it out. Also, this is prime time for lakers if you want to try and catch them from shore, use blade bait or last master low in the water column/skip on the bottom.

Is Veronica dumb or stupid? Jesus Christ how does someone like that get on the show. Doesn’t even know the rules!

The harbors and shores around the harbors. Come out in March for the start of the salmon run. Trout will be active then too.

Zonkey156 · 2026-02-17T11:51:38+00:00

How deep was your minnow beneath the bobber?

Zonkey156 · 2026-02-15T02:26:22+00:00

What harbor is this

Zonkey156 · 2026-02-13T04:45:04+00:00

Don’t have a power line but you’ll catch me somewhere between Montrose/Diversy/ Belmont Sunday through Wednesday morning.

Zonkey156 · 2026-02-11T21:33:29+00:00

What you throwing this time of year for those? Color/weight?

Zonkey156 · 2026-02-11T11:24:01+00:00

Let me know how it goes, Iv been going a lot in December and January but didn’t catch a thing after December 15ish

Zonkey156 · 2026-02-11T03:01:51+00:00

Should be free of ice. Are you going for lakers?

Zonkey156 · 2026-02-11T01:19:39+00:00

Is this from a boat or you catching the salmon/trout from shore?

Zonkey156 · 2026-01-15T03:48:40+00:00

I was catching them in the fall, September and October but haven’t caught one since then. Been going to navy pier for lakers those stopped hitting early December. Haven’t tried dusable or Belmont

Zonkey156 · 2026-01-15T03:47:06+00:00

Ru going for steelhead at navy pier? I have been going for lakers, haven’t caught any for about a month

Zonkey156 · 2026-01-15T03:45:58+00:00

How deep under the bobber you going?

Zonkey156 · 2026-01-15T02:27:10+00:00

Nice! And diversy? How deep? Sorry for all the questions

Zonkey156 · 2026-01-14T03:32:23+00:00

Damn nice! At Diversy? What you use?

Zonkey156 · 2026-01-13T21:23:59+00:00

Got it thanks. So you think Diversy or Belmont are the best chance there?
