Opening Day for Steelhead on Wisconsin's Brule

March 29, 2006 By: Marshall Cutchin

“As openers go, the weather was decent. A dash of snow. A splattering of rain. A kiss of mist. But mostly clouds, with temperatures up to about 40. The river was low and a little cloudy – very fishable. Snow in the woods was about a foot deep and soft.” As Sam Cook notes in this article describing the scene on the Brule river, it ain’t just about catching. On Mercury News.com.
