Northern CA, Trinity & Lower Sacramento Rivers 3-9

In between the storms I’ve been on the Trinity River quite a few days this past week. We saw a little snow and a little rain but it didn’t affect the flows all that much. We’ve been fishing all over the river despite the big water from DC thru JC; it’s been fun running super long floats and covering lots of miles with the...

Another big round of snow. Got about 2.5 feet here in the Hirsch, again.

Good news is that we have sunshine in the forecast for the next week! Just a little bit of spring please.

Flows are still big at about 1,200 cfs here, and slightly higher down lower. More manageable up top, below town. Despite the higher flows the fishing is really good. Below 1,500k is pretty...

The Upper Sac is clear and fishable and 70 degree weather is in the forecast for this weekend. Should be a great weekend to walk and wade the Upper Sac. Flies that have been working: rubber legs, pheasant tails, midges, and other small mayfly patterns.

Jim Stimson reports on 3.9.17

We are enjoying a nice break from the stormy days of January. With the clear skies and high pressure come the cold temperatures in the basins. The thermometer sits at 14º at my house but at least I am not shoveling snow today. As the sun climbs higher in the sky, the day will warm nicely. The snowpack is saturated from the rains last month so this means that if you are...

Steve Santucci reports on 3.9.17

Delta fishing is doing better as the rivers are starting to slowly recede.  Reports of some good fishing around Franks Tract and the Stockton’s deep water channel. Parts of the delta are still restricted. We fished the North Delta this week and found some good action. Still lots’ of muddy water.

Also fished San Luis Reservoir this week. We found good action on...

Jon Baiocchi reports on 3.9.17

I’ve fished the Lower Yuba River twice in the last week as the flows have come down to 3,592 cubes. As the water drops there is new and interesting terrain exposed like side channels, islands, and side sloughs. Hammonton road on the south side that borders the river is gone after the washout, off road enthusiast have already carved out a new spur road that makes it...

Capt. Bryce Tedford reports on 3.9.17

The Delta is starting to clear, but could really use a few weeks without rain & she could really start fishing! There are some fish out there but it can be up & down. We have had a few good days & then a few tougher days over the last week. Most of the SW Delta is still closed, so see the previous week’s report or make sure you are aware of the closures due to...

Hogan Brown reports on 3.9.17

While the Yuba, Feather, and Sac are dropping clarity and flow still remain issues.

The Yuba around 3500cfs is tempting as it seems to have the best clarity. I have guided/fished the Lower Yuba around 3500 and done very well, usually doing a double float between the bridge and Sycamore but from what I have heard Sycamore take out is not open yet so floating it is not an...

Anthony Carruesco reports on 3.8.17

Well, there seems to finally be some good news on the horizon for anglers in Northern California. Weather for the foreseeable future is looking to stabilize in the coming days. There are a couple very weak systems in the mix, with most of the weather looking to be partly sunny and in the 60s and 70s. What a welcomed change of pace that is going to be.

As the Lower...

With more rain in the forecast these resources  are necessary for planning fishing trips right now. I want to show you some different resources that I use to check weather and flows. If you have a favorite resource you use we’d love to know about it:

• Tropical tidbits you can do cool thing like this. 
• River Forecaster
• More River Forecasting, reservoir levels ect..
• Weather Discussion.
• Road Conditions
• Bay...
