I took the day off work and the wife and I hit the Columbia river near
St. Helens OR. for summer steelhead. We anchored up in about 20' of
water on the edge of the channel and used small orange flatfish on a 4'
leader above a 2-3' dropper with 1-2oz. weight.

The current does the work while we nap, read, eat, listen to music,
etc... Every now and then a rod bounces and the reel screams. By late
afternoon when the tide came up and the current died we had released 2
nice 25-28" natives and kept 1 small 22" hatchery fish.
