Have any of you ever used D* Nites for steelhead and been successfull?

You see the little #1 50/50's used all the time for coho and umpies, but never see them used for steelhead.

If you have used them with success on steelhead (I don't care about coho 'cuz I know they work), would you mind telling us what size, color D* Nite you used, what river, and how you presented it?

Just really curious. Feel free to email privately if you do not feel like sharing with the group.

Can't say that I ever targeted steelies with them, but I have caught a number of summer fish on them while fishing for other species ... usually all silver ... size??? Hmmm, don't fish 'em enough to know the numbers off hand, but I'd call it the medium.

I've heard of guys drifting them just as you would a corky&whatever ... and having some success, I'd suggest making sure you try to swing it more than dead drifting in this situation though.
