Upcoming Fishing Outings

Trinity Lake - July 5th - 9th
Fishmaster: Howard Power (530) 266-3728

In July, fishing opportunities include great fishing for smallmouth bass to 5 pounds in Trinity Lake and dry fly fishing for aggressive 8" to 16" trout in several area rivers, streams and lakes within a 30 minute drive from the Power home in Trinity Center, 6 to 7 hours' drive from Santa Cruz. Trinity Center is on the northwest shore of Trinity Lake, about 30 miles west and 30 miles north of Redding.
The fishout will be limited to the first 12 members who sign up at meetings or who contact Harry Petrakis at (831) 419-4245. Harry will also organize provisioning and kitchen duties shared by those who attend. We have two guest bedrooms that sleep two in each. We also have a 15 X 75 foot deck and have four bed frames that can be used on the deck. You should bring towels, sleeping bag and pad, and be ready to sleep on the deck. July weather is great up here. For those who want to camp, Wyntoon Resort (530) 266-3337, less than half a mile from our house, has full hookups, tent sites, cabins, swimming pool, private beach, launch ramp, etc. This will be a busy week for Wyntoon, so make reservations early to insure availability.
Fish lakes from a float tube or pontoon boat using sinking lines and minnow or leech patterns. Use 4 to 5 weight rods in the streams. Fishing is good for hike-in alpine lakes, usually with snow on the ground nearby. Larger trout (to 24") are in Lewiston Lake, best fished from a pontoon boat or (electric motor) powered craft.
Please direct any questions to Harry Petrakis or the fishmaster. Local guides can be made available by contacting the fishmaster with your requests and needs. Hope to see you in July!
