Feather River Fly Fishing Report

Feather River

Feather River - The Feather River has been average as of late. There are more and more fish starting to show up in the system. Currently, there are a lot of fish in the 17-19" range. It has been challenging to find bigger fish this spring. It is just a matter of time before we run into a couple of good ones. One thing that needs to be noted is that the flows came up drastically this week to 4,000 cfs and with the increased flows came a ton of off-color water. 

The current visibility is about 2 feet in low flow. So if you head up this way don’t let the off-color water scare you away. There are still fish to be caught even in the adverse conditions. The flows are supposed to decrease and stabilize by the weekend so expect good fishing for the month of April. If you are interested in booking a trip I have the following dates still available. April 13- May 2, 7-9, 30-31
