Steelhead Spinning Rod

Steelhead fishing in Alaska question?
I have caught steelhead in the rivers around me by happen chance, using lures for salmon. But I have never targeted steelhead. Some friends swear by using eggs and different spinners.
What spin cast lures would you recommend?
And what flies or streamers would you recommend for fly rod?
Location; From Ketchikan to Juneau in South East Alaska also called the Panhandle or Inside Passage of Alaska.
Link of that area; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside_Passage
Thanks. The one I hooked into last fall and lost has me hooked lol! What a fighter
For lures my personal bests are Hot Shots, Wiggle Warts and Lil' Cleo Spoons (silver 3/4 oz.). There's a whole lot more that I go with ie., Lil' Corky's (Luminious Flame colored) with red or salmon pink colored yarn tie above eye of hook, Spin n' Glo, usin' "Roe Sac" trailers (cured fresh Roe w/ Borax 100% Mule Team). Spinners be Blue Fox (lot of ppl use them for Salmon but, I find they work equally well for Steelhead). Hung a "Steelie ay' ~ so what your sayin' is that your close to the addiction stage;)?! My good friend it be almost IMPOSSIBLE for one not to become an addict when it comes to those "Ironheads"
! Link below will give you some good information regardin' them, along with other links for the above mentioned, "Steelie Treats". Good luck and "Steelhead On"
