Eastern Sierra Fly Fishing Report

Although the snow is melting quickly, it is still very winter-like with chilly morning temperatures, frost, and occasional snow showers. Crowley Lake is still frozen but there is open water along the margins and some pressure ridges running through the lake. With a big wind storm, I am sure the lake will be ice free for the general...

Another week of rain and snow on the way.

Nice weekend though, after yet another week of rain and snow.

Flows have actually dropped a bit and clarity is really good on the Truckee River. Saw lots of folks out this weekend here in Hirschdale and from what it sounds like, most folks were catching a few fish. Access is pretty good now, most of the low lying snow has melted,...

What a pleasure to back on the Lower Yuba River doing my thing, guiding, teaching, and fishing. After doing a few trips and a photo shoot with GuideBox the last few days, I’m surprised how good the river is fishing. Currently, the flows are at 4090 cubes, and Englebright dam bounces back and forth from spilling at 99% to 103% of capacity. 

The color of the river is a...

Eastern Sierra Fly Fishing Report

Although the snow is melting quickly, it is still very winter-like with chilly morning temperatures, frost, and occasional snow showers. You can always count on midges and BWO’s to hatch no matter what, with an occasional caddis and skwala cruising through. Once the weather turns warm, the trout will be gorging themselves on a long...

Delta Fishing Report:

Striper fishing on the Delta is going strong! The waters gave warmer & cleared throughout the Delta, water temperatures are 55-60 degrees in various parts of the Delta. Stripers will likely spawn in next few weeks so fishing should be great. The last few times out I have I been averaging 10-20fish. Most fish we have been finding are...

Jordan Romeny reports on 4.4.19

Currently just over 6000 cfs the Yuba has been inconsistently firing. One word to sum up the spring so far “volatile.” The windows of fishing open and shut quickly right now. When the window is open the river is an all-out numbers game. The trout in there are hungry and eating well. But even the weakest
of storms are charging the flows to un fishable flows. I’ve...

Delta Striper fishing remains strong.  Right now the conditions are perfect for topwater.  I gave it a try yesterday and had some nice action.I used a Rio Outbound Short floater with a good size Gurglar.  Also caught them with my T-14 and type 3 intermediate lines.

Still out there chasing steelhead in Nor Cal and Southern Oregon.  It’s been a good late season.  Spring conditions are making things interesting as usual.   After this next weekend, I’ll be wrapping things up and back to the trout around Mt Shasta.

Steve Santucci reports on 3.29.19

Delta Striper fishing has turned red hot.  Good numbers and quality fish are the norm.  Now is the time to go out and get them.  

I have good availability over the next couple of weeks.
