Cast Hope Steelhead Tournament on the Trinity River
It is that time of year again for the Cast Hope Steelhead Tournament up on the Trinity River. This is a very popular event and helps us raise money to get California kids outdoors via the sport of fly fishing that do not have the avenues in their life to make it happen on their own. We have a few spots left open and they are first come first serve. This is a great deal for anyone looking to have a fun time and get out and do some winter steelhead fishing.

Steelhead Tournament Details:
*Location: The steelhead tournament will be taking place on the Trinity River near Weaverville, CA. That's about 1 hour west of Redding. The Trinity is a great steelhead river that has a large run of fish from October - February. This tournament is timed perfectly for catching the big winter fish that show up later in the season. Fish from 25-30" are common on this river with the potential at fish in the 31-35" range being caught every year. This tournament is going to be open to both nymphing and swinging for steelhead. Steelhead caught swinging will carry more weight in terms of points for the tournament.
* Time: The event is going to be held on January 28-31, 2016. You will check in on Thursday evening. Fish on Friday and Saturday. Then check out Sunday morning. It should be perfect timing to miss minimal work. But lets be honest who cares about work when you mention the word Steelhead. Plus you wont be missing any NFL playoff games as this is the off week between the Championship Games and the Super Bowl. Like I said "Perfect Timing".
*Lodging: We will be staying at the Indian Creek Lodge in Douglas City (http://iclodge.net). Indian Creek is directly on highway 299 with the river running through the back of the property. The Lodge is more a hotel style place with an awesome banquet room where we will be doing meals and hosting all of our festivities.
*Meals/Drinks: All meals and drinks are included in the price of entry. You will be served a delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner each day of the event. There is also unlimited beer and wine included.
*Cost: The cost of the event is going to be $2,500 per individual angler or $4,000 for a team of two. A great price with everything that comes included in the package.
*Charitable Donation - The last cherry on top is that you get to take a partial charitable donation to Cast Hope for your 2016 taxes. You get to go fishing and you save money on your taxes. Not a bad deal if you are asking me.
*Prizes: There are going to be some awesome prizes for the winners this year. All of the prizes are going to be based around the thought of steelhead and will include rods, trips, and cold weather gear. In total there will be 6 different prizes given away to the top 3 anglers, top team, and Big Fish caught nymphing and swinging. In addition to the actual prizes each participant will be receiving a free swag bag full of Simms Bag, Simms Jacket, Simms Shirt, and other Cast Hope Goodies.
*Sponsor: This steelhead event is being sponsored by The Fly Shop ( http://www.theflyshop.com). We will be using all of their guides for the fishing. They have been around for a long time and are looked upon highly with expertise on the Trinity River.
