Most items have sold. I received a ton of e-mails and wasn’t able to respond to all of them.
long days on the water and being out of town.

Thanks for all the interest.

Bill,

The Dec Hogan rods are sweet, thanks to terry Thomas I had a chance to cast a few of them. Great price point and a real traditional feel.( like I know what spey rods used to be like ) ...

A boat turned over on the yuba monday just behind me. Everyone was ok.

Got into a few fish in the 4-5 lb range in about 2 hrs fishing yesterday. They are on their way up the river now, so get out and put some time in.

I have a Scott S3S 909/3 9ft 9 wt 3 pc for sale. It was around $600.00 last year and has now been replaced with the S4 model. Used about 15 times for stripers on the American. Every client I let...

All year long. Swinging small nymphs and soft hackels. Spring can be great with larger sculpin patterns.

Two warm days in a row really helped the Yuba river out.
The water was still around 48 deg with about 3-4 feet visibility. The bug life was consistent all day long. Large stones on top did the trick...

American river fish counts

Although dfg has stopped the adding the fish counts to their web site, I thought I would share the email I received from them. Its not great news but its still early.

The Yuba has been hit or miss for the last 18 months. We have had 15+ fish days and three 0 fish days. Average seems to be about 7. You cant go wrong with EC Caddis. When you see bugs on the...

PM sent!

Bill,

I have had a chance to use a few of those rods. Very nice and a good price point. just an update on the Sage 7136 spey i got from you, its an awesome rod. It fished well on the Rogue and...

Bill, I have one of their lines on my switch rod. It really is a rocket like jeff said. :P

Eric,
Good job on getting into some fish. I would recommend using straight 6lb or 8lb mono. Maxima is a favorite of mine. When using only 3 feet of leader you loose a lot of your stretching...

went out for a little striper fishing on the lower American river. It was one of days when everything goes great. in two hours of fishing we landed 9 schoolies up to 4lbs and a 7 lbr. Derek broke...

I love to fish for steelhead, and I love to swing for them. Up until last month I had never even held a spey rod let alone tried to cast one. After all my buddies got hooked on spey fishing I felt...

The Yuba river is still fishing slow to good with a few great days mixed in. Travis and Denise were rewarded with a few healthy rainbows after putting in the time with dry fly's. The hatches were...

Eric,

I only tie the flys that I plan on using for myself. I just started tying about 9 moths ago and love having the control of tying exactly what I want the fly to look like. As far as fly...

Let me know if any one has one and would like to sell it.

Bill, I have a striper trip on Saturday until around 11:30. Do you think you will be gone by 12:30? I would really like to try some new rods.

Eric,

Meet me Friday @ howe ave river access 4:00 pm. I will get you your first striper. You bring the beer :P

I have the same rod, and I would recommend going with a light reel like the sage 2580. Its one of the lightest reel around that will still stop a steelhead. The nice thing about its weight is the...

I had the day off on Sunday, so I went out looking for that monster striper we have been hearing about. Launched the boat around 5:05 am and had landed three fish in the first fifteen minutes. Got...
