Trinity River: ” Fly Only” section opens on April 1st.  We have been seeing good hatches of Callibaetis, BWO, March Browns and a few Golden Stones hatching on the upper runs, the Steelhead and Brown trout are taking dries in some of the runs also swinging flies have been producing a few good steelhead ( mostly downers) and some nice browns.  Lewiston Lake: Should be good this season, we’re already seeing good midge hatches and some callibaetis coming off mid day. Baum Lake: Has been fishing very good this winter, good hatches of BWO and midges and the nymphing and streamer fishing is always productive on Baum. The Pit and Upper SAC: Were fishing good before this last storm … do not have an update on the latest river conditions.  The Fall River and Hat Creek: Open on April 25th and should be in good shape for the start fo the season. Lower SAC: The releases out of Keswick dam are about 3300 cfs. Redding area got a lot of rain this last storm……. the upper runs are off color but should be fishable this week-end.

Here is a few photo’s from recent trips on the Trinity.
