beaverfan said:I have a book that I bought last year it's called "Steelhead Drift Fishing" by Bill Luch. If you PM me your address I will send it to you under one condition, once your done with it pass it on to another young fisherperson. It's an older book but pretty much everything is still relevant and was written by a guy who fishes NW Oregon. Let me know if your interested.
