Paddlers on the Stilly

I was 'schwacking around trying to find the elusive steelhead and found this. It looks like it belongs to a guiding service, so if you know whose it is let me know. Thanks

Ain't that rod a little light for Stealies?

I like the 6wt. for the steelies. as long as you have a good strong reel and a pair, you are good to go. Took a 11 lb. hen on that thing in oregon in february. It is also pretty hard to use my 8wt. for flinging dries.

I can see that. I'm a crappy stealhead fisherman - mostly 8wt w/heavy tip.
