Im heading up to the trinity river in a few weeks, and I wanted to know if anyone has hit it recently. I usially stick with the swinging method and use the classics, (hiltons, brindles, arsonals, assassins, commits, etc.. ) I just want to see what other folks been using lately.
You have some good flies in your mix. For a Northern California/Southern Oregon Steelhead selection, I would add a Conehead Popscicle, Conehead Blue Moon (a popscicle in blue, purple, and black), 100% Leech (an articulated egg sucking leech), and Anderson's Euphoria.
Exactly how Herb told me to use them. The takes are even better than fishing dries. The steelies will explode on the fly or leave sink sized boils when they take.
