The big river through town is so high and so dark.Some marabou tubes. Also, if you have any secret high water bank spots near Portland, holler at me in the DMs. I’m starting to get cabin fever right about now…

Sure is. I did a bit of scouting around the other two, and my hopes are not high, unlike the water.The big river through town is so high and so dark.
Sweet fly. What hook is that?
You've leveled up! Fancy!Pink and purple on a sz 3/0 AJ. Hopefully it's bright enough for a steelhead to see it

Thanks @PhilR!Those look great.
On the clouser frames--is that Amnesia linking the stinger hook? And what knot is that you're using? Looks like a good platform.A couple more string leeches
And some beach clouser platforms for later this year.View attachment 100983View attachment 100984

I have some scrap slick shooter laying around so used that for line. The knot is a snell but not that clean as the SS is thick and not perfectly round. Sort of screwing around with different ideas and material on hand.On the clouser frames--is that Amnesia linking the stinger hook? And what knot is that you're using? Looks like a good platform.
Probably, I'm burning thru some short shanks I have on hand to use them up.Wouldn't it be a whole lot easier to tie those on a 15mm Wadington Intruder Shank?
