Hello all, first time poster.
A friend and I are planning an April trip to the American River area for a week and I'm looking for some guidance on best places to go etc. Neither of has been before but, we're looking to walk and wade and fish dries and nymphs.
We're somewhat flexible on where we go and it looks like there's 3 forks of the river so, the plan is to fly into San Francisco and drive to the river.
I assume the river is open year around for catch and release fly fishing?
Where do we get licences for out of state anglers?
Is one fork better than the others for access and or fishing?
Best places to go for walk and wade and easy public access?
Best towns to look for accommodations?
Best fly shops?
We're both from out of state and have no knowledge of the area so, any help would be appreciated.
