Magical day -- thanks for sharing the pics.

I'm also following this closely. Official details and good maps updated several times per day here:

I understand that fire is part of the cycle of...

Pretty big fire. If you were planning to visit Yellow Creek, the Feather, Butts Lake, etc., check here first:

Anyone know where to find flow data for the Caribou dam online?

The quantity of water coming out of the dam was shocking -- particularly given the 3 campgrounds full of kids along the Caribou...

2000 cfs out of the dam at Caribou for the next 2 months, if the youth I passed on the Caribou Rd. yesterday is to be believed. A shocking amount of water, to be sure.

This means you take your...

I'll jump ahead of the chorus and say, your best bet of course would be to hire a local guide licensed to guide that stretch of water, like Frank Pisciotta (http://cyberfly.com/), for .5 a day or a...

A little off topic, but you did mention monkeyflowers ; )

There is a delightful and rare monkeyflower on the NF Feather you can see easily by parking in Pulga and walking downstream along the RR...

This site has a ton of answers about bugs, pattterns, and techniques on the Yuba: http://www.flyfishingtraditions.com/patterns

Keine's can also set you up with flies designed specifically for Yuba...

Struggling with back pain (well, actually, Sciatica), too.

One physical therapist recommended "water walking," that is, getting into a body of water about waist-deep and walking in it. Waving one...

Is it hat-shaped?

Here's the post with Yuba shuttle contact info:

Wow. Congrats!

There's an Android version available, too: https://play.google.com/store/apps

I visited CC in June a few years in a row, maybe 9 years ago, before I resumed fishing. It's an absolutely lovely creek and there is a nice campground as described above, above the CC ranch a mile or...

Me, too. But I sure love my Renzetti!

Avarice? Sloth?

Ned, can you tell more about that club? Contact info and the cost? Thanks.

Finally made it to Kiene's just before closing this afternoon and got my hat back. Thanks, Jeff! Thanks, Kiene's. Man is this hat revolting -- I'm amazed the board of health didn't come down hard on...

I was on the Feather below Oroville yesterday and there were hundreds of Pipe Vine Swallowtails but no Mourning Cloaks.

I've looked at a variety of waterproof cases for my phone and car key (electronic, unfortunately). They all seem pricey for what they are, so I stick with a 6x8" zip-lock "freezer" bag.

Kevin Price once told me to tie the dropper to the eye of the upper fly, not the bend, because the lower fly can tend to pull the upper fly out of a fish's mouth by pulling at the bend of the upper...

Many of the amato/stackpole waterfall of books on nymphing discuss and recommend the Liesenring lift. It has worked for me (that is, I've caught a number of fish by letting my nymph pause directly...

Thanks everyone (and particularly Frank) for the advice. The "Essentials" book is the one I ended up purchasing the other day. I will look more closely at the Curtis Creek book next time I'm in the...

I agree that the Krieger material is the best I've found so far. I purchased a large-format picture book of his that looks like it might help. Thanks.

I'd welcome suggestions for books or online videos that are effective tools for teaching a college-aged person how to cast a fly rod. I tried teaching someone today and don't think I was very...
