Hatchery steel, 30 inches of muscle and determination. This 10 pounder was landed on a 7ft ultralight trout rod and 6lb flouroclear line in fast moving water. A single barbless hook held this beast through flips and drag-peeling runs, I had to fight the fish for almost ten minutes and chase it down a good sized rapid. I swear I catch more steelhead when trout fishing than when targeting steelhead.
