Brian, sent you a text regarding Sept 13-14.
My Merc is darn close to 200lbs so it stays on the boat! A 25hp 2 stroke jet would be ideal but are hard to come by. The Solar comes with wimpy oar but an NRS rowing frame can be added with full...
I have similar requirements. I ended up with an inflatable jet boat powered by a 25efi Merc jet. The boat is a Solar, made in Russia. Very rugged and with an inflatable floor and tunnel hull. My...
Here are some additional pics of the Catchercraft Se Run Bull:

My other boat is an inflatable tunnel jet.
All items are located in Red Bluff, CA:
Catchercraft Sea Run Bull - $2,800
2 seat 10.5' raft with rowing frame. Bought new in 2017, great condition and stored indoors. Comes with Cataract Oars...
Floating line, size 8-10 muddler as a point fly with a 12-16 soft hackle as a trailer fly.
No felt, they come with a Michelin rubber sole only as far as I know. I got a pair of "strap-on" streamtrekkers to use with these when I'm out of my boat.
Before you buy the Simms, check out the Orvis Pro wading shoes
That is the cold hard truth!
Got my copy a few days ago. It is a must have reference for winter steelhead in California.
My boat is prepped and I'm packed and ready to go when I get the call from friends who live near the lower Eel.
Excited about this but there is 100 years of sediments behind those dams including some toxic mining waste. Its going to take time for the river to recover. Also I hope the tribes/locals are going...
River is dropping but if you stay in the main flow you clear the rocks in that stretch. There is a shallow fast section below Massacre Flat that requires attention. Its short but you will have to...
Ok, isn't that behind the gated entry to Lake California? That would be a very long float from there to Bend with these shorter days. The float from there to Balls Ferry or Balls to Jelly's or...
I run this stretch of river in my small jet boat and I would not do it in a prop boat at present flows. Not saying it can't be done, but it isn't a good idea.
I live in the Bend, never heard of...
The campground host there would lock the gate in the evening during the blood midge hatch. Anyone ever get locked in overnight?

I have one in Red Bluff. At 10.5' long/57" wide, it will fit in a pickup bed. Let me know if you want to try...
Sure...

The steel zip ties should last a little longer than the nylon ties. I carry a couple extra with me just in case.
After my retention strap breaks I drill a hole near the back edge of the heel and use a stainless steel zip tie and a plastice zip tie to secure the sole to the boot. Works well.
Looking for a late model 25hp Mercury Jet outboard, new or used, with low hours.
Thought I would post here to see if I could get any leads or suggestions on which dealers to talk to.
This...
Not every steelhead will take the muddler but it is my fly of choice when conditions allow for it. Most all of the fish I'm after locally are hatchery fish and I've had pretty decent luck with it in...
For a change of pace try swinging an unweighted size 8-10 muddler on a floating or intermediate line/tip.
Works well on Coleman steelhead, might work well on the American.

Very good reels, I have a couple of the spey sized reels. Everyone within a mile will know when you have a hot fish on!
