Relax in the shade just a stone's throw from the CalTrout public launch on Fall River. This lovely rental is a renovated milk house with walls that are a foot thick. The house is also shaded on all sides by trees, so it stays nice and cool all summer long. There are two twin beds that can be converted to a king bed. There is a great patio with a fantastic view of the Fall River Valley.

The rental is owned by famed photographer R. Valentine Atkinson and is appointed with some of his best framed photos. Stop in next door to view Val's photo gallery.

The Bay is fishing well right now with gentle tides and fin bait moving in. 

Clarity has been great with no wind most mornings making conditions perfect for chasing bass on the fly. 

Please join us for one of the most beautiful places on earth to fly fish for Stripers. We have all gear necessary for your day.  Call the boys @ LCO to set up your trip.

Great last week on the Truckee River.

We had a great clinic this weekend. Look for some more in the future.

Nice big spring flows. Flows have dropped just a bit the last few days. Mainly it’s just what they’re doing with the reservoirs, not so much the run off that’s making the flows. If you noticed Boca is low as they are working on the dam.

Yeah, good spring fishing,...

Rebecca and I headed up to Clearwater Lodge to fish Fall River & Hat Creek. We fished late on Sunday evening on the powerhouse 2 riffle. A storm was blowing through leaving sporadic raindrops and cracks of thunder. The 1 billion mosquitoes out were a sign of a good hatch to come. I was thankful for the Simms Bugstopper Shirt and Ben’s 100that I had brought in anticipation of this particular...

Eastern Sierra Fly Fishing Report

The weather is still on the cool side with morning temps often in the low 30’s. Once the sun climbs higher in the sky, things start happening. On just about any stream on the east side, look for a nice BWO hatch around lunch time. Wildflowers are starting to pop up everywhere. Look for showy displays of desert peach and balsam root on...

McCloud River Fishing Report

The McCloud River is still experiencing high flows (532 CFS at Ah Di Na), but the fishing is quite good. The higher flows may limit some access and adjust the way you approach your favorite spot but it is likely that you’ll thoroughly enjoy your day. Last week our guides caught fish in a variety of ways. We were thrilled to throw the dry...

Open Ocean Time

Well, it’s starting to be that time! Fish have finally made it to San Francisco’s famous Ocean Beach. In the past, three or four days the swell has become much more manageable to giving fly anglers a chance to hook into some nice healthy fish. The LCO team is hugely excited for the opportunity to get into a toad; many believe you can only get a...

Capt. Steve Santucci reports on 5.9.17

Fishing has been challenging mainly because of the windy conditions that we have experienced this week. Also, the Delta is in a state of flux as we still have fish traveling north and some groups are passing thru on there way to the Bay coupled with resident Stripers. We are experiencing clearer water and decent water temperatures in the mid-60-degree range....

Lower Sacramento Fly Fishing

Striper fishing on the valley rivers continues to be fair to good. The rivers are in great shape and there are good numbers of migratory fish throughout the rivers as well as resident fish getting on the feed. Shad are also showing up in good numbers and this can really get the resident fish going. May-October is prime time for river...
