State record steelhead landed from South Fork of the Clearwater River Scott Turner shows off a 39.25-inch steelhead from the South Fork Clearwater River, setting a new catch/release state record. Congratulations to Scott Turner of Boise, Idaho on setting a new catch-and-release state record for steelhead. Scott landed the monster sea-going trout on April 11 on the South Fork Clearwater. The fish measured 39.25 inches long – beating Samuel Brumbaugh’s previously held record by 1.25 inches. As an avid angler, Turner has set multiple other records on a variety of species. This spring, he was on a quest to reclaim the top steelhead spot after his previous 2017 record had been broken.
