Whidbey Island - Steelheading

If you are looking to do something a tad bit different fishing wise, starting this weekend and next week might just be the time to sample the Whidbey Island steelhead scene. We have some good high tides first thing in the AM and you will be able to fish the last of the flood and then fish the outgoing tide. (Which I think is the best tide, as it compacts the fish behind the points on the outgoing tide.) As far as the rigging goes take a look at our archived "Tips & Tricks" and you will find everything you need to know. With the beautiful clear and cold weather it is a truly beautiful place to fish with a foreground of the snow capped Olympic mountains, the Straits of Juan de Fuca, Vancouver Island and the San Juans.
