Fishing is getting better by the day on the Trinity River.  Yesterday my client Richard and I floated 10 miles of river in the Douglas City area and didn't see another boat all day.  And yes, we found some nice steelhead, too.  The weather was a little chilly and the best action was in the afternoon.

It rained a fair bit overnight and the fish responded favorably, even though the river didn't come up significantly.  Today was day 3 with Richard and I finally let him catch a fish before 2pm.  We caught fish throughout the day and Richard managed to land 5 five nice steelhead in a short day.  I saw a lot of fish under the boat today.  It's supposed to rain pretty hard tomorrow and that should actually bump up the flows a bit.  That means the fish will move into new holes and be in their happy place, ready to eat your fly.  This next week should be pretty good.
