Upper Sac 10-13

Fall colors and dancing October caddis are out on the Northern California rivers and you don’t want to miss the upper sac scenery and the last big hatch of the year. The evenings have been flooded with October Caddis flying around and it has been great throwing dries and dry dropper rigs. Try your favorite October caddis dries and nymphs...

AC Fly Fishing Reports 10.13.2016

The highly anticipated “egg drop” has yet to really happen this Fall. There are VERY FEW Salmon in the system this year.. Which shouldn’t be much of a surprise when you consider the reckless water management that has occurred over the past 5 years. You cant’t leave salmon redds, loaded with eggs, a foot out of water every year and expect to see salmon return to the...

Lower Sacramento River continues to fish really well, despite the fact that the much anticipated “egg drop” hasn’t begun in full force just yet… maybe another week before it gets silly.

I’ve been bouncing around a lot this week floating different sections of the upper river from Redding to Anderson and on down through Cottonwood. I enjoy fishing every section of the...

Lower Yuba River -I spent a few days floating the Lower Yuba River the last week. Fishing has been fair I would say. I am sure the there is the opportunity for really good fishing on the Lower Yuba River if you are in the right place at the right time…that could be said about the Yuba at any time though really. The river is low, around 750cfs, this creates a tough...

Feather River

• Rating: Good to Great
  
• Flow: 800cfs in Low Flow
  
• Temp: mid 50’s
  
• Clarity: Clear
  

The Feather has really turned on in the past week, and that’s mainly due to the large push of salmon over the past few weeks. With many redds being built, and even a few salmon paired up and more salmon showing up, its only going to get better. We are seeing some quality...

Dave Neal reports 9.29.2016 

Autumnal Equinox has arrived and thus marks a special time of year to be excited about fly fishing in Northern California. There’s fall color popping at the higher elevations and salmon & steelhead entering our longer river systems at the lower elevations.

Evenings are noticeably cooling off and the mornings at sunrise are now chilly enough to warrant that cotton hoody...

Brian Clemen’s Reports on 9.29.2016

Over the past few weeks, the fish in Nor Cal has really turned on. The salmon are showing up in good numbers, some are starting to spawn and you know what that means, “EGG BITE TIME”. With cooler temps to come, the fishing will only get better, hard to believe as the fishing is pretty darn good right now.

I just had  Oct 3,4,5 open up! Prime dates!

Fall fishing season is just around the corner. The days are noticeably shorter now and the nights are getting cooler. In the early morning hours around daybreak there’s been a “changing of the seasons” feel in the air this week. Some of the best fishing in Nor-Cal happens during the fall season… get ready to get after it! 

Many...

Hogan Brown Report on 9/8/2016

Report: Striper fishing on the Lower Sac has been good. There are good numbers of 18-25" fish that clients are hooking into and plenty of shakers. The bigger fish have been hard to come by as there are still not many salmon in the river to push the bigger fish to the shallows in any numbers. That said there is more and more salmon showing up every day. Striper fishing...
