Sounds like it was crowded. From the looks of the stream, it doesn't
look like it could handle that kind of pressure.
Because of its proximity to southern California, this river simply gets
hammered, especially in the wild trout section. On many weekends there will
be a car parked at every bend in the river, and these are quickly replaced
by others when they drive off. I don't know how the river takes the
pressure, but the last time I heard of a shock survey being done there were
stretches that held almost 5000 fish per mile. If a person is willing to
walk a little or explore water outside of the most popular sections, it's
still possible to fish in "relative" solitude.
Cheers,
Bill
