Produktbeschreibung

Mark Bachmann grew up fishing in the Lake Pend Oreille drainage in northern Idaho. At the age of 11, he caught his first trout - a 15" native cutthroat - with a fly from Grouse Creek, which crossed the family's cattle ranch. At times, this creek was home to migrating Kamloops and Bull trout which fed on Kokanee salmon and grew to huge sizes. This private water was the class room for Mark's formative years.

Having grown up catching large trout from rivers, it was natural for Mark to fall in love with steelhead and salmon when he moved to Oregon in 1963. It was then that he landed his first steelhead from Oregon's North Umpqua River. In 1965, he caught his first winter steelhead with a fly from the Sandy River. He has now fished the Sandy for over 50 years and is one of the steelhead fly fishing pioneers on this river. His best fly rod season on the Sandy was the winter of 1969-70 when he landed 64 steelhead, the largest 42". In the years between 1965 and 1980, hundreds of steelhead were caught with fly fishing equipment, drift gear and pulling plug from a boat. Every approach was grist for the mill
