Trinity River: , by Brian Kohlman: 3 stars I had a great time guiding new clients Austin and Kevin! Both were fairly new to fly fishing and this was their first attempt at steelheading. Austin had a new Redington two-handed rod and really wanted to learn how to use it. I set Kevin up with one of my Sage 6wt two-handers and taught them the double-spey and the C-spey. They both picked up the casts pretty quickly and were swinging for steelhead! Neither hooked-up while swinging, but Austin landed a nice hatchery fish right after lunch. A short time later, Austin hooked into a dime-bright wild fish that gave him a fight he'll probably never forget! The extended forecast is promising, so I am cautiously hopeful this will bring in a new batch to fish to the upper river. Austin with his first steelhead!
