Winter Steelhead fishing on the Chetco River can be amazing and IGS will put you on water that sees some of the largest steelhead on the west coast

So if youre angling for larger species, youll need a sizeable reel with enough line capacity to take on them

For the most part, youll want to stick to size 500 or 750 spinning reels, which dont weigh much, hold enough line, and offer good drag systems for most multi-species fishing

You dont need a ramp because you can launch a paddle-craft anywhere you can reach the water on foot

In earlier times, fishers used natural plant extracts like gab fruit and goran bark to strengthen nets, reflecting a harmony between livelihood and nature
