Trinity River NorCal

[jbaker]

A little report for the North here for you guys. I recently hit the Trinity River Near Redding CA for a little steelhead action. Well I didn't find the fish but found some fun water to Paddle. I was Paddling the Jackson Coosa witch is perfectly suited to fishing this type of river. Hope you enjoy.

That looked like a blast and the kayak almost makes it look easy. Thanks for sharing.

Dude that's awesome. I was a few miles past the Big Bar area in your video when my son caught a nice Salmon over the T-Day break this past November http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/s...ad.php?t=20375

Was this trip recent? I was wondering what the flow was like up there after the recent rains. I'd love to yakfish part of that river someday. Great video and thanks for posting, I love that area!

This was earlier this week. The flows are holding at 300cfs out of Lewiston dam but there's lots of runoff entering the river. Crazy part is how clear the river still is.

Cool footage. Looks like a completely different game in comparison to Southern California; dry suit and helmet is not part of my wardrobe.
Rapid section looks fun and catching fish is just a bonus.

Awesome video! Looks like a lot of fun.

My mom lives in Redding, so I usually spend 3-4 weeks a year up there. I'm always drooling driving along the Trinity, but just never fished it. Now you've got me inspired.

We had some really good salmon fishing this past fall on the Sac. This fall I plan to do it on my kayak. Probably put in at Andersen Park and drift down past Battle Creek.

We'll see how this year shapes up.

Very nice, I have family that lives in Lewiston on the Trinity. Hope you find the sweet spot tight lines..
