Oxbow luanch...!!! I have the same river access map for WA (1975 Edition) I use to use to find new spots to fish when I first started hunting steelhead, literally in the 1970s. :) I think it's great that you are talking about the basics of tackles but also about how to find locations AND conditions to look for. There are so many amazing tools out there. That's great help for people who are just trying to get into steelhead fishing. @11:14, Matt played the perfect straight man role. @11:00, you gave away your secret to catching fish. I didn't know we had to speak to our bait.... :) Still trying to decide which one of you have the best fishy smile..!

[@BadAshOutdoors]

AWE! Thank you! -Matt's got a great smile. ;)

[@EthanPriceOutdoors]

Great Video!

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Thanks, Ethan! Means a lot from a fellow creator!

[@jamesclover3055]

Great photos of your Eyelashes.... Did you catch anything?

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Hey James!! Thanks for watching the video! I didn't on this trip. 😁 Great trip regardless though.

[@MultiTakeem]

It was great to see you out Steelhead fishing again!!

[@BadAshOutdoors]

🙏🙏🙏🙏💛💛

[@dukeumnukem9747]

Those are AWESOME map books! DeLORME Atlas and Gazetteer is also cool, each state has a book and it shows logging roads as well. Thanks for sharing. But you know there's no place like home! Where you can find your custom native floats!😂😂😂😂👍🎣🤙 Keep smiling kiddo and stay safe on your ventures!🎣

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Hey you!!! Yeah they are pretty awesome! I do miss home!! I still think I'll find them.... hope floats :) Thanks for the kind words and for checking out the video 💛💛🙏

how have u been liking your HMX rod i have one thats a ultralight but been thinking about grabbing one for steelhead as well

[@ShanePingStyle]

Lovely comment and wish to go fish someday together with you too!!!

[@BadAshOutdoors]

They're a great mix of quality and value - they absolutely do everything that a steelheader or salmon fisher needs to do. I've found that differnt sizes and permutations make quite a difference, so make sure to match the rod size/action with what you're intending to do with it.

[@OregonFishingAdventures]

@@BadAshOutdoors thanks i love the guides on those rods

[@davidmays3333]

That was great Ash. Still trying to get my first steelhead. Just want to say Thank U for great info

[@BadAshOutdoors]

I'm so glad you liked it! I hope these tips can help you land one! I believe in you'

[@billnurse5321]

I am surprised you don't centerpin fish you drift fish a lot, that is my favorite way of catching steelhead, love the video so informative.

[@BadAshOutdoors]

I do centerpin!! I go through phases of using it and putting it up

[@williamwinsor7376]

I fished the Chetco one time and I caught a twenty pound chinook and so did my friend. He lived there. Shoulder to shoulder with the typical braggart everybody got tired of droning on and on crowing like a rooster as constantly snagged them.

[@BadAshOutdoors]

we found a MASSIVE chinook carcass. DEFINITELY want to get up there for fall chinook season, hopefully in our NEW NRS Raft!

[@brianking1138]

Speaking of secrets why did you have to zoom in on my local river during your internet section 🤣. Great job Matt , that looked like a fun day and seeing otters is always a bonus.

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Hahaha! Sorry we had to pick something! Matt says thanks! The otter was SO COOL. We kept a good distance, but he was growling at us when we got out the camera!

[@ShanePingStyle]

@@BadAshOutdoors This is my first time watching one of your videos and I really enjoyed your approach and storytelling style thank you for sharing!

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Hey! Thanks for watching! Glad your here :)

[@kerrybrock9861]

Hello Ash, really enjoyed your steelhead how to. I've never used spinners for steelhead mainly just bouncing bait,or a little bobber fishing, I'd like to try some spinners some time, thanks for sharing. Kerry

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Hello Kerry! I am so glad you enjoyed it! Spinners are great to have in your arsenal! I hope you give them a try.

[@1jeliaz]

How can I go fishing with you

[@asully70]

Awesome video! Awesome fish Matt! But I think we may have assumed the wrong gender on that fish 😜

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Thanks for checking it out!! Yeah was definitely a buck!

[@danielroth8822]

thats neither a doe or big

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Thanks for watching!

[@Floatdroppin]

Was a good video but your buddy shouldn’t be pulling the fish over the rocks like that !!!

[@BadAshOutdoors]

Thanks for watching! We intended on harvesting the fish for dinner , so we weren't concerned about the rocks.

[@Floatdroppin]

@@BadAshOutdoors oh makes sense ! Just have seen lots of people that don’t handle fish proper but you definitely know your stuff ! Drop some floats & good luck this season 🤟🏻🤟🏻❤️

[@BadAshOutdoors]

@@Floatdroppin thanks! You're right, lots of people make that mistake. Good looking out. Fish on!
