Christmas has finally come and is almost gone. Now I can concentrate on steelhead fishing. It’s hard to juggle work and winter fishing since the fishing is so dependent of timing. Being there when the river is at the right level and flow makes all the difference.

Right now I’m constantly checking the weather up north and the river levels. I wish I had a webcam set up so I could look at the color. I know what the conditions were when I’ve caught fish in the past, so I know what to look for now. Then I can leave on a moments notice.

One of the things I hated about working at my last job was not getting time off on short notice, so if I had to pick a time of the year to be not working this would be it. I guess that’s one way to be grateful.
