TRASK RIVER: Winter steelhead
Winter steelhead are throughout the fishery on the Trask and fishing has been fair. The Trask is on the rise today and will probably blow out. It should start dropping by Saturday but probably won't be back in prime condition until next week. There are no hatchery releases on the Trask, so it is mostly a catch and release fishery, although it is known to get an occasional stray. There are steelhead throughout the river and in the North and South Forks. The angling deadline on the North Fork is Bark Shanty Creek and, on the South fork it is Edwards Creek. There is no angling above the deadlines this time of year.
Trask hatchery has some damage to the access road so anglers and visitors will need to park up top and walk down. Last updated 3/11/26.
