Hi Guys:
Cannot find info anywhere? I know steelhead is catch and release in the Cap. How about other species of Trout if there are any? Can you keep them?
Thanks!

Nope! :naughty: catch and release, you might catch the odd cutthroat.

I've seen it happen before where some uneducated fisherman have mistaken steelie and salmon smolts for trout and have bonked them! :wallbash:

Not too many, if any, trout at all in this river. If you need a trout fix you may have to go else where, but of course if that's the case then the coho's running right now is the answer.

Sorry dude! My post sounded like I was beeking off at you! I wasn't talking about you at all, but simply telling what I've seen!

BTW , fishing in the cap right now is excellent. for both summer steelhead and coho. :thumbup:
i caught my best fish ever last few days ago (summer steely) released perfectly too.also 4 coho so far.
better hit it up ! eace:

Right on you caught one of the few that come back, fishing must be excellent for the 40 summer steelhead that return. issed: issed:

Do you know that only 40 summer runs return per year? And steelhead do get caught by fishing for coho so i'm missing the point of this? I didn't know it was bad to hook a steelhead while fishing for bluebacks in the cap! I myself would love to hook a summer run in the cap! Wouldn't you?

they are an awsome fish to catch, but play them fast and release them fast.

 

[lucky M.]

[hotrod]

I guess yur living up to your board name as the summer run steelie returns are low in #'s. :thumbup:
