I guess lightning does strike twice. I fished the strwbry patches again and drifted jigs and eggs for steelhead for 45 minutes or so with no luck so i rigged for chum with a bobber jig and a 1 foot leader. Third cast the bobber exploded from the surface and down and my heart exploded a millisecond later. I Set the hook and landed a beautiful 9-11lb summer hen native. Is this normal? 99% of my steelhead have been off bottom in pretty deep water, but a foot from surface? come on. Maybe i have to break out the long rod and whip some flies out there cuz there's definately alot of fish in the green right now. I also hooked a 20+lb Chum on the same rig a few casts later but he took me way down stream and then the hook bent and he was history. Great day though and the river looked great.
