Depth: Creek: Deeper holes and runs
Comments about fish:
Harbor area in MC is frozen; however, a small area is open underneath the Franklin St. Bridge. Anglers can gain access by way of Millennium Park. Steelhead have been caught on shrimp 4-9' below a bobber. Anglers continue to catch steelhead throughout Trail Cr while anglers fishing the western tribs report most of the action is occurring in the lower reaches. According to anglers, the top producing baits include spawn sacs or pieces of shrimp floated just off the bottom through the deeper holes & runs.
Comments about body of water:
Area tribs are low & clear. Water temp of Trail Cr is 33ยบ F.
