He used a 9 weight fly rod and reel and a chartreuse Intruder fly. 11 Paul Schimchick sent us a photo of a Kodak slide from the summer of 1968 showing his father with a nice summer run steelhead he caught fish- ing the Hoh River. Paul, who is holding the fish, was five-years-old at the time. He is now 57. Paul’s brother Mike is hamming it up on the right. “R.I.P. Dad,” Paul writes. 12 Sam Nicholson fooled this beautiful chrome steel- head with a tandem rig, a 6mm white bead up top to a baby blue Roe bag. He was fishing a tributary of Lake Erie.
