A Steelhead Quest: Portrait of a Rivered Life
Terry Myers, a steelhead advocate and long-time angler, spent 2015 trying to catch a wild steelhead on a different river each month of the year. After successfully hooking a wild steelhead in all but two of the months, she set her sight on finding the last two fish to complete her quest.
The film explores the experience of an unassuming but determined woman on this two-year quest. Watch as she tries to unlock the mysteries of catching wild steelhead through the changing seasons. With her husband Jerry in tow, we see the challenges they face with depleting runs, while still enjoying every aspect of being on the river together-rain or shine, fish or no fish.

I'm so glad REI presented this amazing adventure story with its incredible cast of real-life characters. Too often REI only presents young people discovering their abilities outdoors and testing their endurance levels. Those are great stories, to be sure. But the wisdom, contribution and legacy of the older generation to outdoor adventures have made an indelible impression for all to enjoy. I hope REI will feature more stories like this one that celebrate this group of older, often overlooked explorers. It serves as proof that the indomitable spirit of adventure lives in all ages. No particular generation has a monopoly on it.

When I watch movies like this it really makes me want to just sell up and go! This is what life is all about. I'll start by trying to get over there and catching a steelhead on holiday first!

This is the most inspirational movie I’ve ever seen that captures fishing, family, and love. Your relationship with family and the river........it’s amazing! The laughter and joy is infectious! I’ve been fly fishing for 6 years now and though my wife does not go with me she sees my passion for this sport. It’s beautiful to be in a sport that will take you to the most breathtaking places. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for taking us along. I really respect your choice to protect stressed fish in warm water. Love your spirits, and the way you compliment each other. This is about much more than fishing. The best to you both!
