GLF Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 That steelhead looks like a bullet with a set of jaws.I was too busy tonight to get that tutorial done. It will be a couple of days before I can get to it. Hang in there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant Sadler Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 I have never seen a steelhead with that large of a mouth, looks like it belongs on a king.Nice fishI think this fish mist the dinner plate a few times in his life:lol: He should had a lot bigger body to go with his head as a male, NOTE he was trying to catch up, he 10- bloater chubs in his belly, at first I thought he was some cross breed Steelhead, and his meat was White not pink:confused:.

A-Fishy-Anado Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 I sent Rick (Cork Dust) a msg to check this fish out. He has some great insight on this type of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hfitch Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Nice fish! Your right, at first glance I thought that steelhead was a king til you look closer! Strange stuff, but nice fish none the less. Imagine if the body did catch up to the head, holy big fish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimcr Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 its a mutant fish, Do you still have the head , I would like a close up of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Sadler Posted August 25, 2010 Author Share Posted August 25, 2010 Jim; I don't have it in my hands or possion but it may be in the frezzer at the cleaning station I will check, what do you mean by that name of fish Mutant , and what type of picture do you want ? let me know:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimcr Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Just that it looks really different, if you don't have it that ok , just wanted to do a little research on why the head would get so big . If it possibly crossed breaded. Or if its just genetics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steeliebob Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 In the great lakes you do get the occasional deformed fish, but wow that one has a massive head. My guess is that it spawned last spring and stayed in the stream a little too long. If that is the case it would explain the white meat. I have caught steelhead in the rivers in mid July and they almost always have white meat unless they are skamania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfish Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Nice fish and pics! The larger head one looks to have x type marks on back, not sure with not a close up pic. Could be an underfed Atlantic? All the steel I've caught on eastside of state from Ausable down to PA have had orange meat in past, and Atlantic my buddy caught this past spring off Tawas had lighter colored meat. Nice catch regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
