Steelhead have averaged 8-12 pounds with steelhead in the high teens and low twenty pound class a real possibility on this river. Steelhead are being caught from both the bank or drift boats. Crowds on the Smith have been light this past week. Steelhead fishing will only improve with the arrival of more rain this week.
