It is possible that those high flows may also be coming from upstream at Spaulding. There are problems at Spaulding that is forcing them to release water into the Yuba. A big slide took out the South...

“You do not cease to fish because you get old, you get old because you cease to fish” (Anon)
That walker just gave me an idea. It might let me fish for half pounders again and shad too. Not sure how the spey rod would work, but I'll talk to Andy about that. Gives all of us hope to extend our...
We went week before last. It was slow. I got 3 really nice ones, all on wooly bugger/wiggletail. Took most of the day and the mid-day was the best. Got two and then something large slammed my first...
Rob's trip is worth it for a first timer. Did it a couple of years ago and it was a lot of fun. Lots of fish.
I have had good luck with the Super Cat. It weighs 15# or so and is very packable. Has pack straps built in. Sits high on the water. I have to sell mine and am going to miss it. Like Woodman, I'm at...
Thanks Lew,
I had a good vacation in Maui but didn't make it bone fishing. The schedule just didn't work out. Maybe next time...
Thank you both and thank you Bill for a great conversation about fishing in general.
Jim
I will be in Maui mid September and wonder if there are any recommended guides for bone fishing.
Still $450 but now will consider OBO. Lots of people watching this thread.
Thanks for your encouragement!
I have a Fish' Buddy 2201. It works great in water over 10' deep. If the fish are on the surface, like planters, then the side-finder will detect at least some of...
Price Reduced to $450 for the lot!!!
Price reduced! Just in time for fishing season! Gently used Outcast “Featherlite” classic pontoon boat for rivers and still-water.
Outcast describes this model as a great all-around pontoon boat...
I think we passed each other, me in a green pontoon boat. If it was you, thanks for the tip about depth. I caught four more nice Bass and lost a couple in the weeds after your suggestion. What makes...
My daughter lived in Bath for 7 years so we spent a lot of time in the area. I have used a Martin Cottis on the Chew/Blagdon lakes. His email is martin@troutguide.co.uk. He is very knowledgable and...
Fuller lake boat ramps are open and lake was fishing well last time I was there. The road to Bowman is closed due to a big washout. Not sure where that is, but it is beyond Rucker Lake turn-off.
Check with Tom Maumonynier. He is local and a really good guide for the area. "Almanorflyfishing.com". Highly recommended.
Sorry when I mentioned "box" I should have said C&F design. No, i don't worry, because the box is a C&F 4.5" x 3.5 fat with a center panel. I've not lost a fly from it as far as i know, but if I...
Something else to think about: value of flies in your box. For insurance purposes I went through one of my nymph boxes and realized I had almost $700 in nymphs alone. Streamers were even more. Guess...
The regs are clear right at the opening of the fishing reg book:
"2.00. Fishing Methods--General.
(a) Except as otherwise authorized, all fish may be taken only by angling with one closely...
Had some time to absorb the events of this trip. Thanks again, Rob. It was quite a wild time and a great one. and made an old man happy. One thing really came home to me was how lucky I was to have...
Just found an old Trout Unlimited calender with the tag line: " You do not cease to fish because you get old, you get old because you cease to fish."
I used a NRS Chinook on the Klamath river above Somes Bar. A little clumsy when you wade until you get used to it but you get a lot of confidence because you know if you go down it will be there. No...
To Darian and Jet,
Thanks for your suggestions. I do live in S. J. and have had a lot of good fishing in the places you mention. The problem is that my kids live in Roseville, so I am trying to...
Thanks Bryan,
I do understand that if it is a private place, I don't blame him one bit. In the meantime I found a place called William Pond, so that sounds like a start.
