Rondy: Trinity River Steelhead Drift
Dates: December 3, 2022
Leader: Patrick Cousens pdcousens@gmail.com
Number of anglers (including leader): 8
Description: The Trinity is a gorgeous river this time of year. We will be floating the river from a drift boat or raft - both with hard bottoms. We will mostly fish with nymphs and/or egg patterns under indicators with, maybe, some swinging using 2 handed rods. The guides will provide rods, flies, beverages, snacks and lunch. Anglers will need waders and boots (no studs please) along with weather appropriate clothing. You MUST have a current fishing license and STEELHEAD card.
Fish range from half pounders to 30 or more inches. 10+ pound steelhead are caught every year so be prepared.
The nearest town is Weaverville which is conveniently located within 30 mins of the river. There are several lodging and dining options to make for an enjoyable two-night trip if you so desire.
The trinity is a beautiful place with a fish of a lifetime waiting for your fly!
The guide service we use is great. They are:
