Trinity River

We're getting rain and the steelhead approve!  Captain Justin's crew hooked about a dozen steelhead today making for an exciting time on the river.  The Trinity saw a slight rise today and some stained water flowed in from the tibutaries which definitely helped turn on the bite. A bit of rain makes a big difference on the Trinity and todays rain will...

As we close in on the final week of the 2020 Sacramento River salmon season it looks as though we may see some rain to help finish the season with a bang!  Its not going to be a lot of rain but if we see an influx of water from the tributaries above Red Bluff, it just might move some...
