It's one steelie per day, so we released the others unharmed.
The fish in the picture weighed 8.6 lbs., the others were smaller.
I was surprised on the pull from the fish on the 6w, and had the drag set
light cause I was using 4x tippet. Took about 13 min. to bring in.
I wouldn't know about the thin tail, not an expert on steelies, had nothing
to compare to.
Also my first time eating steelhead, they taste great.

I'll be on the Klamath next year for salmon.

Very nice fish. BTW, you need heavier tackle.
