Trinity River - January 14th, 2005
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Good
A very cold day on the upper Trinity river. The temperature was in the low thirties and never really climbed up much . We fly fished in the traditional methods swinging flies in the riffles and slots and high sticking the pocket water for steelhead and German browns. It was a very fun day on the water. Bill landed his first steelhead on a fly. He was swinging a small copper john through a tail out when the big buck hit. It was around 9 lbs. The weather looks good for a few more days and the river should be in great shape. Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - December 22nd, 2004
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Fair
This will be our last report until after Christmas. The Smith is low and clear and has had only a few boats out each day. A few of the guides are catching some nice steelhead on side drifted roe. The Trinity has not seen any new push of fresh fish since the last big rain storm. The river is also low and clear above the south fork and is clear below it but running at a decent flow. The fly fishing is decent and bait fishing is pretty tough. The fish are really spooky when it is this clear. Be sure and use your fluorocarbon leaders and down size your bait or flies in these conditions. The main stem of the Eel river is in and has a few early run steelies in it fish down low. The weather man is forecasting rain on Christmas day. Fishing should be great after our next storm. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - November 29th, 2004
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Fair
Fishing was a little better today. We landed some nice adults. One around 10lbs we caught all of them pulling plugs. Side drifting roe produced all of our half pounder action and one dark salmon looking for his last meal. The weather is very cold. There was Ice on all the guides and we had to keep dipping our reels in the water to keep the drags from freezing solid . That's steelhead fishing. If you haven't booked your steelhead dates yet now is the time to do so. We offer trips on the Smith Trinity Eel or the Chetco . Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - November 12th, 2004
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Good
We have been fishing on the Trinity the last few days in some areas where there is less pressure. We are targeting only steelhead and have been doing ok. The last two days we landed 2 adults on both days .All the fish where between 8 and 10 pounds. There are a ton of half ponders moving thought the Klamath and the lower Trinity making for some good action on smaller fish. I talked to Tommy at little Rays tackle in Klamath Glen and he reports the action is decent on the Klamath side they are still seeing some nice Coho move in everyday along with a few steelhead and the half pounders. I am sure your all tired of hearing this but we need some rain to get things going over on the Smith. Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - October 29th, 2004

FISHING: Fair
The fishing is on cruise control on the Trinity . We have fished in the upper river and down low and the results are about the same. A few salmon and steelhead . We really need some rain to stir things up a bit . The river is at the lowest level I have ever seen it making for very spooky fish. The Smith is giving up a few nice Salmon but it too needs some rain to keep it going. Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - October 27th, 2004
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Good
Spawning salmon . We saw lots of salmon spawning in the river today. We hooked quite few and kept one nice hen for the smoker. Most of the salmon on the Trinity are way past there prime. They are fun to catch but not much good for table fare. The main quarry has shifted over to steelhead fishing. We are going to fish down lower tomorrow to where there is some better steelhead water. The upper river is in great shape but is a little low for side drifting roe, although its perfect for fly fishing under an indicator. The weather looks good through the weekend. I have a few dates available over on the Smith for salmon during November. Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - August 3rd, 2004
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Fair
The fishing remains slow on the Klamath and the Trinity. We expect this to change next week and should start to see a few fish being caught on the lower Klamath. Here is the latest water news hot off the presses. There are going to be releases of more water from the Klamath and the Trinity. The Klamath flows August 1st to 15th 600cfs 16th to the 23rd 700cfs 24th to the 31st 900 cfs September 1st to the 30th 900cfs on the Trinity side August 23 ramping up to 1650cfs dropping 60cfs every 2 days to 1000cfs on September 12 ramping down to 450cfs by September 15th. These flows should help avoid another fish kill like we had 2 years ago and should make for some fantastic fishing on the Klamath and Trinity rivers. Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - August 1st, 2004
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Fair
Here is the latest fishing reports for the Trinity and the Klamath rivers. The spring run on the Trinity has slowed down. Only a few fish are being caught and most are starting to darken up a bit. There are a few fresh fish moving up but not many at this time. The steelhead fishing is pretty slow also. You will be working really hard for a shot at very few fish. We've been fishing the Klamath for the last two days, and it has been pretty slow here too. We started out trolling spinners at the mouth targeting salmon and steelhead in the last 2 days We did not see a fish landed in the lower section below the 101 bridge. We also fished up river by Blue Creek for steelhead and the action was slow there with only one steelhead landed. Right now the water Temperature is 74 degrees.. way to hot for the fish to hang out . There has been some good numbers of fish coming in from the ocean. They hang out in the estuary for a while before deciding to stay or go back out .A few days ago there were some pretty good numbers of fish caught. At this time of the year you really have to have a little luck and be there when the fish have come in. As we get later into August the number of fish starting their run will really improve. The Department of water resources the DFG and the BLM are working on a plan to send some more water down the Trinity and the Klamath. The release dates have not been made public yet nor has the amount of water. Friends of the Cal-Ore fish just got through fixing the boat ramp and installing new docks at the boat launching facility in Klamath Glen. We owe them a big thanks! If you are not a member please sign up. Their web page is www.cal-orefish.org They do lots of good things to promote the enhancement of salmon and steelhead. Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - July 25th, 2004
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Good
Another nice day drifting the Trinity river. The fishing was decent today. We didn't hook a ton of fish, but the action was better than the last few days. There was a lot of pressure on the water today. We were the first boat off the trailer to hit the water and it paid off with our first hook up of the day coming at our first stop . After a nice fight we lost it right at the boat. We ended up hooking a few more and landing 2. Hopefully things will continue to improve. Thanks Tim King

Trinity River - July 15th, 2004
supplied by: Tim's Guide Service
FISHING: Great
An awesome day on the Trinity, the river is full of fish. We went 7 for 12 today and we had one nice double! These guys came ready to rip some lips when they got bit and they swung their rods like Bobby Bonds. If it connected we had them hooked up. At one point both guys swung at once and we had 2 nice kings hooked up. We were able to land both of them. There are some really nice summer run steelhead starting to make their way up the Trinity. We will start to target some of the fish on our salmon trips in the next few days. The big news of the day is the ruling to put more water down the river. The battle seems to have been won and the only appeals left is the supreme court. They are showing no interest in hearing the case. This is a big win for the salmon and steelhead runs on the Trinity and the lower Klamath . I will be in Sacramento for the next 2 days fighting for more fish for the sport fisherman on the Klamath and Trinity rivers. I will update my report when I return fishing. Thanks Tim King
