Ok so to answer my own question, I'm allowed 2 steelhead per day, and 5 jacks per day. Awesome. So, here comes a total salmon/steelhead NOOB question.....what the heck are jacks? Somebody please answer my question without making me look like a total idiot....:rolleyes:

Pick me...I know!...I know!
A jack salmon are those that follow the run to spawn but have only been in the ocean for a year or so. They are nature's insurance that there are enough fish to fertilize female eggs. If there are many adult bucks in the return the larger fish will bully out the jacks.:)

Okay, so are they colored similar to regular steelies? Or more like rainbows?

They don't really look like either they look like a small salmon. Here's a link to a good picture of what Chinook Jacks look like. They will look different than a Rainbow or Steelhead.

Anybody planning on hitting this hole Tuesday or Wednesday? I just found out I'm off work at 1 on Tuesday, could be out there by 230 or so. Just wanted to see if any OFFers were gonna be down there. I'll be the newbie who looks like he has no idea what he is doing with the super long (9'6") rod. I kind of know what people are using, I'm just going to get inventive and see what I can do. :pray:

It's below faraday lake dam. Easy to find and the hike down isn't to bad at all.
