Here is from the October 2010 westlands water newsletter...dont you just love how they talk about how they bought bollibokka to facilitate raising the dam (and flooding the property in the process) and then talk about how the "River is esteemed for its beauty and has been known to have some of the best trout fishing in the world. In order to protect this unique fishery, all fishing is catch and release, fly only, barbless hooks." What a disgrace.
Bollibokka Fishing Club Reservations for 2011 Reservations are now being accepted for the Bollibokka Fishing Club for the 2011 season. The Club property was acquired by the District in 2006 to facilitate the raising of Shasta Dam. Until the Dam project is undertaken by the United States, the District is committed to operating the existing fishing club. In addition to past users of the club, all District landowners and water users are given first opportunity to reserve a fishing date.
The Club property is very private, located along seven miles of the McCloud River immediately upstream of Shasta Lake. The McCloud River is esteemed for its beauty and has been known to have some of the best trout fishing in the world. In order to protect this unique fishery, all fishing is catch and release, fly only, barbless hooks.
The season begins on Wednesday, April 27, 2011, and ends on Monday, November 14, 2011.
If you are interested in reserving a week for a fishing trip to Bollibokka, please review the following information and contact the Club manager listed below. Remember that for reservation purposes the week begins on Wednesday morning and ends at sunset on the following Monday. The Club is closed on Tuesday for cleaning unless reserved for consecutive weeks.
This early opportunity to reserve a week at the Club terminates on January 31, 2011, when reservations will be open to the general public. There are two accommodations available for
rent on the property:
• The Way Station is located on the upper two miles of the property. The Way Station can
accommodate up to six guests, and that is also the maximum number of rods permitted
on this portion of the river. The cost is $4,200 per week.
• The Club House and Rock House are located on the lower five miles of the property.
The two buildings can accommodate ten and four guests, respectively, but the maximum
number of rods on this portion of the river is twelve. The cost is $7,000 per week.
The District utilizes the experienced fly fishing services of The Fly Shop in Redding, California to
handle Club management activities. The Fly Shop will coordinate all uses of the property. It
has associations with many fly fishing guides familiar with the McCloud. For more information,
please contact Michael Caranci of The Fly Shop at (800) 669-3474 (office), (530) 222-3572
(Fax), michael@theflyshop (email), or 4140 Churn Creek Road, Redding, CA 96002.
The Fly Shop will try to accommodate all reservation requests on a first come, first serve basis.
Once your reservation is accepted, The Fly Shop will provide a Confirmation Package, which
contains directions to the facilities, updated policies, information on cooking and cleaning
services and additional contact information. Payment for your stay should be made directly to
The Fly Shop.
