20 # steelhead I caught about 8 years ago in the glacier fed Deschutes river on 8 pound line & a drift rod.. The steelhead are going all the way to clearwater Idaho we just intercept them on the way, a long & arduous journey another 350 mikes upstream. Steelhead are sea run trout not salmon, harvest trout also go to sea but generally don't get above 4 or 5 pound's & return annually. A Blessing being born here and coming back after the Navy, I love this area and wouldn't move for anything. We average 15 fish a day apiece before noon, with a bag limit if 3, we just keep the ones over 18 pounds. & release the rest. Still waiting for my first this year, they just opened the Columbia mainstem last week for steelhead & Chinook Jack salmon.
