TRINITY RAW (Nibbles & Bits)
Trinity Fly Shop | Currents: AKA Herbies Blog Oct 7, 2017 | 19:04 pm
I realize it has been way too long updating our blog. No excuses and don’t want to bore you with how busy we’ve been because, it seems like these days, most everyone I know is chasing their tail laboring overtime workloads; unfortunately many putting fun on the back burner. I will mention I have been […]

HELENA FIRE (Junction City) TRINITY COUNTY CA Many have called the Trinity Fly Shop inquiring about the Helena Fire, access HWY 299 West, and the safety of Trinity County residents. Here is what we know. To date, the Helena Fire, (Junction City) 9 miles west of Weaverville, is active, only 30% contained, and sadly, burned […]

DEEPER SHADES OF CHROME (Tune in-They’re Coming)
Trinity Fly Shop | Currents: AKA Herbies Blog Aug 23, 2017 | 21:05 pm
It has been nothing short of Smok’en-Hot for the past couple weeks, eleven consecutive days of over 100 degrees in Lewiston. OUCH! As a 34 year Trinity resident I cannot remember any summer that has been hotter; especially after last winter’s cold and wet rage. The good news, as of this post, cooler weather is […]

OBJECTS OF DESIRE (ticking the bucket list)
Trinity Fly Shop | Currents: AKA Herbies Blog Jul 9, 2017 | 18:51 pm
Some of the best advice I have ever received from friends and clients during my 34 yrs. of guiding is “do it NOW- while you are able.” Too many, too often, have preached, “I am financially stable, have time on my side yet do not have my health.” So when I received the invite to […]

34 YEAR BRIEF (End of an Era)
Trinity Fly Shop | Currents: AKA Herbies Blog Apr 26, 2017 | 23:24 pm
No, it is not a rumor. After twenty-three (23) years, of great fun and a major highlight of our lives, Kit Kreick has retired from the guiding profession and TFS to peruse other interests. While a few of us saw it coming, it is still a jaw dropper to witness another great leave the industry. […]

HIGHWATERS-STILLWATERS-TAILWATERS (Better than No Waters)
Trinity Fly Shop | Currents: AKA Herbies Blog Apr 8, 2017 | 23:12 pm
Just when you thought there was a glimmer of warm sunny weather settling in and one last shot for late season TR steel, Ma Nature delivers another one-two punch series of frontal systems bringing more rain and snow (to 3000ft.). Is it spring, winter, where are we? Runoff and snow pack has fueled Trinity Lake […]

TRI-TIP & HEINEKIN TO BEAN WITH BEACON (Living the Dream)
Trinity Fly Shop | Currents: AKA Herbies Blog Mar 8, 2017 | 22:55 pm
Without a doubt all the rain and snow this past winter has been a blessing and great reprieve from one of the worst droughts in Ca history. However raging rivers, lakes exceeding capacities and monster snow packs, (185% above average) are conditions many guides have never witnessed, and winter isn’t over. Weeks of unforeseen cancellations […]

Something to Talk About (And Then Some)
Trinity Fly Shop | Currents: AKA Herbies Blog Feb 4, 2017 | 18:29 pm
It’s been awhile since Patty and I traveled through the Central Valley and, rebounding from a recent early morning road trip, was surprised to see the CV refreshed and very much alive. Most notably, water everywhere. Farmlands were all but flooded, threatening to breach check levies, and every creek, large and small (Putah-Thomes-Cottonwood etc.), refueled […]

The Perfect Storm (Possibly?)
Trinity Fly Shop | Currents: AKA Herbies Blog Jan 8, 2017 | 23:12 pm
Anyone that has traveled the lower Trinity River canyon, Hwy 96 below Willow Creek, and noticed the Cal Trans. sign (1964 High Water Mark) adjacent Big Rock Quarry generally slows down, or stops, amazed and even bewildered; the distance between the Trinity River and established 64 high water crest is all but unimaginable. It’s been […]
