Trinity river steelhead fishing 11/15/2021

the trinity river continues to fish good for steelhead, we have been getting enough rain to keep the river at a good flow to keep the fish on the move. Every day is a new day on the river right now. Steelhead will move 4 to 5 miles in a day or over night. So one day can be so so and the next day it’s like wow there here. That’s what’s cool about migrating fish that come from the ocean. We are running both fly fishing trips and spin fishing. The fly fishing has been really good with brown rubber legs and blk with a soft egg just below it. That’s all you need. No need to over think it. The most important part is getting good drift’s and placing it in the correct spots.
Spin fishing has been very productive also. There is a ton of ways to catch trinity river steelhead. Back trolling number 50 hot shots in the Mikel Jackson or silver and gold plugs are deadly. The deeper holes a small piece of natural cured roe or a minie crawler with a slinky will definitely get the job dun. Throwing spoons like a Cleo and just skipping it off the bottom is definitely a deadly way to pull fish that have been heavily pressured. If there are lots of boats on your drift I suggest slowing down and getting creative. And you will have a much better day. The trinity river steelhead season is a long season, it will go until the end of February and sometimes even March can be really good.
