We had a fantastic day on the river with my friends Jon Geyer and John Brackett.  Had some sun, some rain, and some hail.  We brought 10 fish to the net&#8230;.all released quickly back to the water.  We lost one hog that John hooked that had the head shakes of a real T.O.A.D., big shoulders for sure.  Never saw that one, ran hard, stayed deep, and the hook pulled out after a good battle.  Oh well, cant win em all.<br \/>\nWe got some nice shiny hard pullin&#8217; acrobatic winter fish.  Found another dandy one that couldn&#8217;t resist the Reel Tech Custom Steelhead jig.  I just love the photos of yet another mouth stuffed full of marabou.  That makes my day!<br \/>\nGreat times with great friends&#8230;..what could be better?? <\/p>\n<p>Here is John BENDO on a winter steel:<br \/>\n<a
