Little late on the post.

Had some long days floating the river on the Nevada side. Good solid fishing. Good streamer fishing starting too.

Wishing we could get some weather coming in again. We’re sitting under a ridge of high pressure, cold nights, warms days. If we could just get that cloud cover.

I’ve been spending all my guide trips in Nevada- so these reports are...

Eastern Sierra Fly Fishing Report

I am still on an extended road trip. This report is being filed from Santa Fe, New Mexico. It was so nice being with my family back in Vermont. Good times!

This fishing report is dated, from a couple of weeks ago, but not much has changed. The weather is crisp, cold, and clear. Expect the trout to be more lethargic and hanging in the...

It’s a great time of year to be on the water. Steelhead fishing in the Feather and Yuba River has been productive. Dry fly fishing in the Yuba as well has been giving a good amount of shots just as swinging steamers in deeper runs and foothill fall bass is starting to get exciting. 

If trout, bass or steelhead aren’t what you’re looking for, there are fewer...

Bay 

Wold Series Bite! Too bad the Athletics are in the playoffs anymore but who cares we have striped bass in the bay! The past two weeks have been a blast out at Crissy field, but it can be entirely tide based.

For example, I got to Crissy at 6:30 am, the tide was slack at 5:22 am so, in theory, the tidal flow should have been running for about an hour. As I...

The Klamath River is having an incredible half pounder run throughout the system. Our guides report finding them from Happy Camp up to Iron Gate Dam. 

Also, some very nice adults can be found in with these pods hanging with their little brothers and sisters.

The Upper Sacramento River is in great Fall shape too. The October Caddis are out in abundance and fighting crowds here isn’t as bad. From all reports the entire river is fishing very well with some big boys being caught from mid river down to Delta. Be prepared to see a different landscape on the lower river since the fires though. 

Evenings are good for...

The McCloud River is living up to its Fall reputation for fishing. The Brownies are getting very active in preparation for their spawning soon. This has to be one of the best if not the best Fall I’ve witnessed for these beast, am seeing a German Brown hatch like no other. 

Not only am I finding them in their typical lies but have been finding them in some...

Lower Sac Striper Fishing is in full fall mode…some days are good, some days are great, some days are really tough…the bottom line is that most days though clients are getting shots at some big fish. 

Fall is where we spend a lot of time hunting for those 1-3 fish that can make your whole season. While there can be days where we stack some decent numbers on most...

Happy Autumn from Vermont!

Eastern Sierra Fly Fishing Report

I am posting this report from Vermont. Wow! What an autumn! New England is amazing.

This fishing report is dated, from a couple of weeks ago, but not much has changed. The weather is crisp, cold, and clear. Expect the trout to be more lethargic and hanging in the deeper pools.

The flows are currently...

Capt. Steve Santucci reports on 10.18.18

Striper fishing slowed up a little bit last week.  Water temps are in the low to mid-60-degree range.  

More important were experiencing great fall weather with low winds.  

It’s a great time to be fishing with our beautiful fall days and color changes
