Late May and early June is the annual timing for this fine fishery.

No fishing from boats here.....all wading.

Lots of fly fishing folks from the Sacramento area use to go there annually and I am sure some still do.

A couple people from Granite Bay Fly Casters go every year and say after 2 days of fishing they are too tired from catching so many big fish that they actually come home early. I plan to go next year.
