Inspired by Charlies thread a while back about things he had learned I though I would add a few things I have learned while fishing on the Trinity this Fall. Before I go into my observations I have to add a WARNING so that I do not run afoul of some governmant agency or the politically correct police, none of the following is supported by any data other than me, so use this data at your own risk although I think it is highly accurate.
The first thing I learned and this was a very recent observation it is colder in Douglas City than it is in Red Bluff, and how do you ask do I know this tidbit of information, because I needed a jacket in Douglas City and I didn't need one in Red Bluff and hour and a half earlier. This observation, although I know this will be hard to believe, also applies in Junction City.
I have also learned that Trinity River water is wet, not an abmormal wet, just the normal run of the mill wet, but still wet. I would also like to point out that I personnally have not observered any abnormal levels of hydrous dioxide this year like was reported several years ago on this very board, so that may have a La Nina or El Nino, or one of those other cute weather terms, anomoly. I have also observed the wet water flows, sometimes left to right and at other times right to left, I am not sure why this phenomenom occurs but I am sure there are sound scientific reasons.
I realize by now your brains are spinning from information overload with all of this fabulous information, so I will add just one more thought. I honestly, genuinely, with all heart believe there are fish in the Trinity River. You have to understand I have not caught one this Fall but being true to the fisherman's ethic I believe there are fish. I should add that a guy told me his barber said that his cousin told him that a friend heard from a guy in New York that he read on a blog posted by a guy in Europe that he caught a steelhead from the Trinity River. Probably an Urban Legend.
