Huron River Drop Back Steelhead, April 29, May 5, 2023

Saturday evening I drifted beads and jigs through a good run downstream of spawning gravel. Lots of suckers of all sizes jumping.  I got this steelhead on a #6 White Mop Worm Jig.  She was a spent hen turning back to silver.  Drop back fish feed freely and she took the jig deep and fought hard for her size.

 

 

Thursday Morning I fished the same spot and 3rd cast with the same 1/32 ounce #6 Mop Worm Jig I got this bright hen.  It looks like the same fish as 4 days ago but It appears the tip of the anal fin is different.
