The bass bite at Trinity is still very good. Recent reports mention consistent action on a variety of techniques... from topwater to jerkbaits to ned rigs. Nothing huge, but both smallmouth and largemouth are being caught in solid numbers. Continue to target the shoreline out to 15-20 feet.
Trinity Lake has been providing very good bass action for the last couple weeks. Both smallmouth and largemouth are moving shallow, and they are hungry for reaction lures.

Trinity Lake has been providing very good bass action for the last couple weeks. Both smallmouth and largemouth are moving shallow, and they are hungry for reaction lures. Crankbaits have been the ticket. The water is extremely high, so the newly flooded shoreline provides the perfect structure for largemouth. Smallies are holding closer to points and rocky areas. Once again, fish fast. Slower finesse styles have not been producing.
Flows have dropped significantly over the last week on the main stem... positive news for anglers. The lowest measurement was 7000 cubic feed per second. Still not fishable, but heading in the right directly. Keeps tabs on current flow and gauge with USGS updates in our Eel River summary area.
The Trinity still isn't fishable. Stream flow and gauge height are still extremely high, and water color is still poor. Expect it to stay this way for some time.
Due to some early March rain and snow melt, water levels are on the rise, and water clarity is muddy. Another week or two of dry weather should get the river back in fishable shape.
