steelhead

[tony1]

I'm coming up the first weekend of November with a couple buddies and I'm looking for some suggestions. All three of us will be useing 7'6" spinning rigs that we use to throw thundersticks with for the king's. Wow..pretty darn productive and what strikes !! What would you guy's suggest we rig with ? Hardware or spawn ? Appreciate any advise.

ps. Thanks to Jay at BBT for having my rod drop shiped form St.Croix (just in time) and also Clint at the Red Moose Lodge for the excellent accomidations and suggestions.

Regards- Tony

I'd say Hot n Tots then if that doesnt work try spawn. I really recomend a longer rod for spawn though.
Good Luck!

November is actually perfect for pitching cranks and spinners for steelhead. Most of the leaves are gone out of the water, so you're not hooking a leaf avery 10 seconds and the steelhead at that time are fairly aggressive. Spawn, either bottom bounced or under a bobber, are good producers as well.
