Okay. Now you are getting it... how about a switch rod from the likes of Meiser? A smaller spey with all the ooomph you need on the Trinity. Reach everything with no backcast, mend the bejesus out of the slots. The upper specifically has lots of brushy sides and the spey cast will allow you to cover the holding water where you find it (and the fish). If you choose to single cast it, drifting indicators, you can very well, all day. If you are on your boat with your 2 buddies they won't get as fidgety as when you're wielding a 14'0" Clearwater cannon. Gretchen the dog won't get half as fouled on an 11'6" switch and the whole rod is in the boat for the rare occasion the nose gets buried in the brush because you were all too excited and not watching the drift so good. The upper Trinity is a PERFECT place for a switch.
fish first, ask for time off later...
