Hi Fray. I just ordered the Blood Run 10’6” Ironhead float rod and I got an extra $10 off thanks to the offer on your video. This rod has all the specs I have been looking for to replace an old St. Croix Wild Rivers float rod I have had for years and needed to be replaced. It will be the perfect rod to fish jigs and beads for winter and summer steelhead out here in Oregon. Your channel is awesome by the way. Tight lines!

2pc also.

When I build rods, I wrap tiny bands starting at 16" on the blank, changing colors every 4". No need for a tape measure. I just hold the butt of the rod at the tail of the fish and take a measurement.

Great vid. What rod and real are you using? Very curious about switching to a bait aster setup.

I would like to come but from the Netherlands is a bit far. But I love watching your videos.

Used your code to restock my Skeena hooks!

Slappin em bro!

Oh I so want to do this but need a mentor to get me started

Great video!! When are you coming out to the northwest to tangle with our steelhead??

any reason for the bait caster over the center pin? I'm just curious, I'm a bait caster myself was thinking about getting a center pin .

@FishFray

Yes, mainly the extremely fast retrieve compared to centerpin is convenient. Also easier casting in some situations

I’ve been trying to catch a steelhead for a bit of time now is there a certain time that is best to target them?

Fray, can't make your seminar in Grand Rapids. Out of town on business. Any chance you can record and post at a video?

I’m loving the music. Song?

Hi fray, what mainline are you using on your baitcaster? I have mine spooled up with some Trilene mono and the memory is terrible. The line comes off the spool in tight coils and causes a lot of extra friction in the guides meaning I cannot get a drag free drift! I tried boiling the line but didn't help much. I'm about ready to switch to braid. Wondering what you would recommend.

I've been fishing steelhead in the PNW for close to 40 years now. Many of us in these parts like to use baitcasters for float fishing for many obvious reasons. Where I very from many is I like to use a 40lb to 50lb braid as a my mainline. I do this not for strength but because it floats cleaner on the surface especially in choppy water. I also grease the first 30 to 40 yards with wax or fly floatant and this makes it really easy to mend with almost zero movement on the float. I then transition to a 10lb to 15lb leader depending on water conditions.

I'm going steelhead fishing this weekend for the first time. I'll be starting somewhere mid state and working north if needed. Maybe even in grand rapids. You gonna hit the dam while your there?
