The first week of October has seen the upper and middle Rogue river hit it’s stride. I’ve been focusing on the swung fly and spey casting with most of my clients and have had good success even on the skated dry at times. Indicator tactics are of course picking up fish too. Fall is a magical time on the river up here.

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...

The Pyramid Lakeopener was this last weekend.Big winds for this years opener put a wrench in our fishing. Normally some wind is good for Pyramid Lake but not when your out on your tubes, or in a boat trying to target the fishing in the deeper water. Still fish were caught, but it wasn’t as good as the last few openers for the majority of anglers. Sure, some shore guys caught some stranglers...

Pyramid Lake Opener

Opening week at Pyramid Lake produced many smaller cutthroat trout ranging from 17in to 25in. Both strains of cutts, the Pilot Peak and the Pyramid strain were grabbing readily. Fish were caught at all available beaches from the very north to the very south. The...

Fishing is steadily improving in the Delta. Schools of Stripers are moving into all regions of the Delta.  The best area is the West Delta where you can access 65 degree water temps.  We are catching them on topwater flies and sinking flies.  San Francisco Bay and the Napa River are also good choices.

We are starting to see some October Caddis on the Stanislaus & Merced. Size 10 nymph or 10 dry.

Mokelumne - The Moke is back down to minimum flows, best to wait for the Salmon pushes coming soon.
Upper Moke- It’s all fishing well, dries & dry droppers. Stimulators & Caddis are best. Cooler in the morning so nymphing will be your best bet early.

Stanislaus-South Fork...

Even though we are in another warm up, water temperatures are falling and currently at 58 to 63 degrees. Conditions are changing for the better. Residen rainbows are starting to feed more and the fall bite has started. Fishing pressure has increased, but it’s not a problem to find your own spot. Target areas that are not being picked on, the trout will be way more...

We had to throw some plastic over our garden tomatoes and peppers last night as the temperatures plunged into the low 30’s. Autumn is in the air. There was a hint of frost on the ground but that should all but vanish by the weekend with a rise in the thermometer. The aspen trees in the high country are starting to turn yellow. With the hazy blue in the mountain...

Hey Everyone , Putah is continuing to fish really well, however it is getting a lot of pressure so consider being a little extra quite and fish seams others don’t bother fishing due to heavy consintrations of boulders that make drifts difficult , You can always go to a hopper dropper and fish those runs being over looked my most. also consider bringing a second rod...
