Truckee River this time of year?
(Preview)
I might be in Tahoe City this weekend and the budget isn't happy enough to rent skis or buy lift tickets. Would the Truckee be worth fishing this time of year? If not, then I might hit the Yuba or the American. I know my way around the Truckee during the summer but have never tried winter fly fishing...

Is there one single rule in the state as far as the high water mark goes. Funny I should probably know this but mostly fish public water. Most places you have to be below the high water mark. Some spots I have heard it's the median water mark. I am more specifically asking about the Russian. Found som...

Lower Yuba 2/12 report
(Preview)
A couple of us went up to the Yuba on Friday. Once again, a little rain kept many of the fair weather fans off of the river. Nonetheless, we decided to head upriver away from any crowds. We worked our way up from the bridge, trying all kinds of rigs. No bugs were coming off in the morning, no fish were ris...

Lower Yuba 2/13 Report

We got the the Bridge around 8:00 and I pulled into the North side just to see how many cars were there, surprisingly only 4. Crossed the bridge and headed down about a mile. Started with skwala stone ny...

Anyone going to be out there? I mean from the board, as I'm sure it will be busy on the water. I think I'm going to plan on heading downstream of the bridge instead of upstream where everyone else will be.

The lure of the Yuba pulled me in again. I ran up this morning for a quick day trip. Ran into Cody at the parking area when I got there. It looked like he was in a Conestoga Wagon, there were 5 fly fishers packed into a van for their day trip. I hope no one had refried beans for the trip home. Th Skwala hatch ha...

Yuba Question
(Preview)
I was just rolling through the Fishing regulations looking at the regs for the yuba and noticed regs for the section below Daguerre Point Dam. It looks like this is artificial only section. Has anybody fished this section before and is it worth the trip? How is the access?

Lower Yuba 1/14
(

Hit the Lower Yuba yesterday on a whim. The spring crowds are beginning already as there were 10 guys above the bridge. The half inch of rain from wednesday put only a slight tinge in the water, which was even lower than 10 days ago. My guess is that is reaching 700 CFS and must be at minimum allowable...

Yuba Killer?

You know those days on the Yuba when fish are rising all around you. And you try every fly in your box. And you know the fish are taking emergers by the way they are rising. This may be the solution......
