Chuck at Wild Waters Fly Fishing reports on 12.14.2017

Fishing on the Klamath has been fair to good. Opportunities are presenting themselves everyday for anglers covering water. No spots have been a home run as steelhead are spread throughout the river. Winter conditions have put fish in the mood for slower water and slower presentations. Swinging flies with light tips has proven itself productive....

It’s late, but the season isn’t over yet. There are still plenty of steelhead around and ready to be caught. Water temps are cold, so if you prefer swinging flies for steelhead you will definitely want to use sink tips. Getting down is the name of the game, this time of year

If you prefer trout that’s a great option. The trout fishing is still amazingly good. Some...

Steve Santucci Reports on 12.14.2017

Great weather this week with little wind and beautiful winter sunshine. This is the most beautiful time of year with all the colors, migrating waterfowl and just the right amount of chill in the air. The Delta Stripers are active and they are inhaling the flies that we are throwing in the low 50 degree water. Hope you have a chance to fish and experience the...

Jon Baiocchi Reports on 12.7.2017

Dominating high pressure lately with plenty of sunshine and the air temperatures are much warmer after the north wind has gone away. The flows have leveled off on the Lower Yuba River and are currently running at 1,309 cubes at the Parks Bar Bridge gauging station. Yuba County Water Agency will keep these flows for the next few weeks, subject to change if we get...

AC Fly Fishing reports on 12.7.2017

Not much has changed on the TroutFactory that is the Lower Sac. The fish have gotten a little quicker and the hatches have thinned out a bit but the fishing remains good to very good. It pays to have a perfect drift in the right spot, with a ninja quick hookset. There is a substantial difference in the success for those who do. The wind was a pain in the ass the...

Andras Outfitters Reports on 12.7.2017

What a difference a year makes! Last year, the Rogue got really big in December and stayed that way through April making for an extremely limited winter steelhead season. Yesterday I guided the river under clear skies, excellent water conditions and slid the net under great wild steelhead! The weather over the next 10 days looks to stay unseasonably warm and...

Jim Stimson reports on 12.7.2017

I do not want to open a can of worms, but I cannot escape the feeling that our current administration is leading us down a dark path. I fear for our public lands, clean air and water….   that said; My heart goes out to the people of Southern California who are battling these insanely destructive fires.

Peace Out!

The river has dropped to about 50 cfs. These...

Unlike their mountain brethren, Putah Creek spawn in the Winter. Beginning in November the first fish will begin preparing redds. Fish will begin to take on a darker appearance and will seem sluggish and lethargic when hooked. This is due to the tremendous amount of energy required to spawn and complete the reproductive process. Putah Creek is a wild-trout fishery...

Rob Russell Reports on 11.20.2017

December usually marks the arrival of the first steelhead in the Russian.  However, there have been a few half-pounders and adults already caught this year.  Flows are low at this time, and could fall below 300 cfs in Guerneville by the weekend. This will bring about a low-flow closure.  Please call the low-flow hotline 707-944-5533before you decide to fish the...

Matt “Gilligan” Koles Reports on 11.30.2017

Flows are way up on the Truckee River.

The weather was very mild last week, record-setting. I was wearing a t-shirt up here. Things are changing this week and we are getting some snow and more seasonable weather. Seasonable for us here this time of year should be cold, like really cold.

Yes, flows are up. They’ve been working on pouring the footings for the...
