Pete, some people love their breathables but not me I get cold in them. I bought Cabela's 5.5 1000 gram thinsulate bootfoot neo's specifically for steelhead and can stay in the water all day. One of our group who has been fishing up there for 20 yrs only wears breathables though.

Outstanding Starfish!

On a related note, is there anything sexier than a hot babe with a bent rod?

very very nice. thought my wife was hard-core fishing nut, but now i'm not so sure. Her and the COLD don't get along. Very nice pictures.

Great photos, you guys - I love the one in the middle of the first set, can't believe Starfish could be smiling like that in water that cold, but a nice rainbow always helps.

What a woman!

I got my wife a nice 9' surf rod one year when she said she wanted to learn to fish - her 1st day out with me we ran into a all-bass blitz on Ocean Drive that lasted from 6 AM to almost noon - God, I wish I had a camera that day, she must have landed 50 or 75 bass - I finally lost count - and she lost one that bent her rod tip down to the butt. She was using Storm Shads - she calls them 'Gummy Bears'...

No doubt about it, women can fish.

Hey, look at the fine catch she got when she married me...

Anyway, keep the photos coming -

Good luck on your next trip, Starfish - hope you get the steelie of your dreams to run you down the river!

where did you stay when you went up there? stay at the 1880 house B&B it is awesome like being at home and the place has alot of character and is very women friendly. Wish I could get my wife up there with me.

Watching and seeing photos of the two o' yoots fishing together is a real pleasure. I don't see enough of that stuff. Keep it up.

Meanwhile, thanks for sharing. Happy New Year.

If you looked at my wife you would think she couldn't last a minute without the comforts of home but what I love the best is that she can handle pretty much anything. That day we were fishing it was mid 30 degrees and pouring rain and she was right there fishing. I would like to stay at the 1800s house sometime though I have read good things about it. . We have been staying at the Steelhead Lodge. It is cheap 30 a night has a coffee machine and a nice room downstairs with pool table and large flat screen tv. Also stayed at Salmon Heaven Lodge in Altmar. Best thing about getting up there is it costs 20 in gas in my wifes jeep. Lodging and food are all cheap but we always spend a good amount at the bar. We didn't think my wife would like much up there or the people but she can't wait to get back. She had a great time with the locals at the bar too.
