19 lb namesake

[steelhead'r]

While prefishing the A-Tom-Mik Invitational with Thrillseeker I landed a 19# steelhead. 37" length and 20.5" girth. I have been trying for forty years give or take to get a 20# steelie. I came close on fri. As you can tell by my name I'm partial to them. My thanks to Nick for setting that rod, Dex for saying that outdown was going to go off, Steph for steering the boat and to Vinnie for netting it. We released it maybe me or someone will catch her next year over 20#

Good luck - tight lines,
