Rivers About to Rise Again...
As you know, we're in the middle of a wet winter. Winter started this year in Mid October and the rain hasn't taken an extended absence since. This is a good thing. While we may lose some days of fishing due to high river conditions, getting out of this drought is the key to keeping our fish thriving. At this point, the northern half of California is looking to be in great shape, water wise. I believe we are in for some excellent fish returns in the not so distant future...
Steelhead fishing after the last rise was good to very good, but the last few days have gotten tough with low, clear conditions. We are scheduled to get rain through the weekend, which should push a bunch of new fish in. It should be fun, as we are right in the middle of prime time...

Mike Combs with a mid-teener. If only he spent more time on his fishing instead of his hair. He could be truly dominant! Haha!
Josh Wolst with a perfect Smith hatchery steelhead...
Trinity Meadows inspired this fish to cartwheel across a heavy rapid a couple of times. Good show!
