Lake Davis 

I’ve done a few trips on the fertile waters and the lake is full to the brim at 98 % of capacity, and surface water temps are at 64-66 degrees. It will cool down a little and stabilize from the past few days of big wind and cooler air temperatures. Fishing pressure is moderate, and 10% of the habitat is holding 90% of the fish - Simply put those trout are...

Day 2 of 5 Rivers Challenge: Another fun day and happy anglers fishing the wild trout waters of Northern California– Fall, Pit, McCloud, Upper Sacramento rivers and Hat Creek. We have 8 two-person teams out on the water, testing their angling skills to see who catches the most fish and the biggest fish. Congrats to Steve Johnson and Mikk Anderson for both catching a 19” from the Pit and Fall rivers. So far the competition has one team far ahead the rest, but with one more half-day fishing today, let’s see how it turns out. Thanks to Mike Wier for the photos; he joined teams on the McCloud River and Hat Creek, with a little hex in the evening on Fall River. 

Golden Stones, PMDS, and caddis pupa are to be expected this time of year. 

Hex’s are popping on the Fall River too!

Lost Coast Outfitters Fishing Report

The fishing is fantastic, catching is good. The beaches inside the bay are my favorite places to fish. Bass, perch and halibut push bait into very shallow water and we just tack back and forth casting up onto the beach and strip back to the boat.

I think gangs of bass patrol these beaches which makes them very good targets with...

Good solid fishing here on the Truckee River.

Super nice weather and really good fish’n. Flows are great and the bugs are out. June is always a good month when we have normal flows. We got lucky and and had some rain and we saw some serious green drake action. Just have to be on the river at the right time and get lucky. Nymph during the day, and dry fly fish in the...

Deschutes River

Now that the Salmon Fly hatch is over the Deschutes is back normal. People are gone but the fish are still there and ready to play. The warmer weather that has been hitting us of late has already got the caddis hatch ramped up. Riffles are always a good bet but a lot of the fish are making their way to back eddies or slower moving water, aka smaller bug...

Valley Stripers

Striper fishing on the Lower Sac and Valley rivers continues to pick up and the heat wave coming this weekend should really get the fish feeding. 

The water temps have been a bit on the cold side so some HOT weather will do the river good. The full moon next week and that always kicks the fish into gear a bit as well. July-October is PRIME time and...

McCloud River Fishing Report.

I have to keep this short. The McCloud River is fishing the best that I can remember in my 18 years of guiding it.

 Dry flies, nymphs or streamers take your pick. It’s too easy. Best go elsewhere.

Striper fishing slowed down last week in the Delta. It seemed that it was hard to find fish and even get a touch. Had a great day fishing Smallmouth Bass a couple of day’s ago. We used mainly floating lines with small poppers and small sinking flies that sink two to three feet. We caught great numbers of fish with a few fish approaching two pounds. You always have...

Striper on the fly is heating up and there’s still plenty of shad to go around in our Nor Cal rivers.  The American, Feather, Yuba and Sac have all be producing great and the weather is gorgeous.

  Don’t hesitate to try to get on a boat, many guides are booked up or close to it.  Pack out what you pack in, fish hard and get home safe!Capt. Chuck Ragan can be...

Happy Summer’s Solstice! The weather has been perfect on the east side with temperatures in the 80’s even in the high country. And, the road to Devil’s Postpile is open. Enjoy the fishing and the Sierra.

Watch out for deer strolling across the highway, especially in the mornings and evenings. There are some amazing splatter marks on the asphalt from the collisions....
