I have spent the last week guiding the Trinity.  Angling pressure was high last week, but slowed down this past weekend.  The number of hooked steelhead was also very high last week, but slowed down this weekend.  My best "numbers" day was when Dennis Taniguchi, Matt Parisi and I hooked 12 adult steelhead.  We hooked them in 9 different spots on the river using both swung flies and indicator techniques.  Dennis even rose one to a skated dry.  

 

Regarding pressure, I have noticed some "anglers" have been fishing one spot for 6 hours or so, which is great...keeps them out of other cool spots that I like to fish....keep up the good work!

 

My best client fish was a nice 11 pounder caught by Scott Coulter, but that was the only one we landed a few days ago, and then we got skunked yesterday somehow.  That's steelhead fishing...you just don't know if you don't go.  There are lots of fish in the system this year, and there will be excellent opportunities to catch them well into December and the winter months.  Book a trip with Confluence and see more than 2 miles of river while learning about steelhead fishing.
