Conditions

The Trinity is running 300 cfs from Lewiston Dam for winter, and fish are grabby and responsive to swung and skated flies. Active salmon spawning in big numbers is keeping steelhead engaged. The bite rewards technique and timing, so consider working with a guide if you are newer to the water.
