So why did the rainbow decide to go to sea in the first place???

Maybe it's for the same reason that the chicken crossed the road!!! :lol:

There's no way to tell for sure....but....I see a ton of late winter Native steelhead on the North Umpqua that look EXACTLY like that fish.

A lie is a lie too. "Yes officer I caught this fish right here in the river and here's my tag" or " No officer, I caught this fish in the reservoir above, I don't need a tag for this fish" I like to think outside of that box that our wonderful government has created for us to think inside of.....Just sayin. ;)

Holy shirt this thread is still goin lol. Wow. I forgot about those 'bows. Technically steel, by regs but I'd say it's a bow, still. Especially since I know where that one came from.

Steelhead: genus: Oncorhynchus species: mykiss
Rainbow Trout: genus: Oncorhynchus species: mykiss
Same fish, just raised differently - like two brothers, one raised in Jersey City, NJ; one raised in Kansas - they are going to look and act a little differently because of environment.
