SB Gaucho:
Haven't camped at either (just stayed at places in Dunsmuir - the Dunsmuir Lodge is great, as mentioned above). Both locations you mention are really close to river access. Maps are...

CDEVINE: check PM.

StevenB: thank you for the tip - will definitely make it a point to stop and shop local. Can't beat boots on the ground info.

Fish gods are smiling on me.

Just got a call from a cool kid, who found it and called literally two minutes after I posted this - don't think he even saw the post.

Love this sport, love the...

Lost a flybox on the Yuba today. Has my name and number on it - hoping it finds it way back. About 6" by 4" darker grey and about an inch in width. Started at bridge and hiked upstream about a...

BWAG: First picture alone is an amazing story by itself - that's one proud dad. I have a baby girl 5 weeks, 5 days and it brings up powerful emotions. That post was incredible. Thank you so much...

Stayed at Casa De Campo proper, but fished from Punta Cana.

Look up Shaun Snell @ Casa - a gifted, technical shooter (the resort's shooting director), the man also loves his fishing and is very...

Buddy and I fished U Sac hard this past weekend, multiple exits, lots of hiking, lots of driving.

Our timing wasn't perfect, the fishing was ok. Our average size fish 10", we got a few that...

Hiya Billy:

Coworker and her hubby did an awesome trip few months back, asked her to give me the quick and dirty. Pics at the bottom, hopefully I get it right.




Ugly cast, mend, feed,...

My two cents - PM sent.

Fished the Truckee this past Monday. On the water by 7 am, and left after dark (one hour break for couple of beers and sandwiches at Rowdyville, right off of the Hirschdale exit). Good numbers, but...

Rick:
Thank you for incredible pictures and read! Take more trips and keep the reports coming.

Billy:

I lost a PMD dry box on the Yuba a few months back. It was brimming with tiny snob variations of all sizes. Many were gifts from knowledgeable geezers, items you can't purchase, you get...

One of the best posts I've read in a long time.

That one grab is all we need isn't it? It evokes such good feelings - sometimes they grab, sometimes they don't, but your story makes me think of...

Billy:
Pyramid report is good - hit it with Jackson this weekend. Cold and windy, whitecaps on Friday and Saturday, straight up beautiful on Sunday - air temps in the 60s? Bobber fishing worked...

Boys - http://www.kiene.com/articles/NZMSreport.pdf pages 32-37 gives the specifics. Everyone has given accurate info, I have a few sets of gear as well, but, 1 to 1 ratio of 409 disinfectant with...

(BRIEFLY, Rob, I want to thank you for the last post about the father/son/marathon). Brings tears and makes us thankful for the good things in life)

Billy:

Fished the Yuba on either a SAT/SUN...

Never said the fish weren't there, just said that I wasn't doing any catching. Floated past Gristmill probably around 5 or 6 pm ..... Katz - my honest report was a bit whiny - I'll buck up and just...

Fished pretty-hard yesterday and went home with my tail between my legs AGAIN - drifted with couple of buddies from Sailor to Watt. Avoided several of the popular holes that had boats in them. ...

Billy -
Drifted Rossmoor to Watt today. Did pretty poor, only a few shad to the boat, all caught in the slower stuff, no stripers to the boat (did see one about 25 lbs, ignored us). Met and...

Ask someone like Joe Shirshac or Chuck Campagna (guys who have fished longer then many of us have been alive) and they will tell you the single most important thing to learn if you are just starting...

I drifted the Lower Sac Thu of last week - sucker spawn, and then almost any dropper variety was working, but up higher, mayflies worked better, the lower you drifted, the better smaller caddis...

Punkin - have we EVER missed you. So we'll see you at the expo, and I'm sure a great number of the felons on this board would be willing to buy you a pint afterwords.

Chemdoc - all posts above are accurate. Armo is your guy - he is the streamkeeper and has spent more time on that water then anyone - so he'd know about the conditions of the water and the roads...

5 or so years ago, while fishing the McCloud with Putnam, we were on a one of the beautiful runs near the bottom of the conservancy - bit of rough water into a long deep run with flat, meandering...

Waded above the bridge on Saturday. Fishing was ok, the water looks unbelievable - greenish "runoff" tint, clarity is at least 2 feet or better. The fish were taking small mayflies, didn't see a...
