A friend and myself fished the Yuba River on April 13 with Guide Ryan Miller. Ryan is a awesome guide and worked very hard at getting us onto the fish. The first fish of the day was a 19 inch rainbow caught very close to the launch site. The next fish caught was a hot 23 inch crome steehead. Both the 19 incher and the steehead were caught by my buddy, Guy. About five minutes after Guy landed his steely, I hooked into another steely that turned and ran to the other side, and snapped me off on 4x tippet. The fish looked as if it was about the same size as the one Guy got. For the remainder of the day Guy had four other hookups and landed one, while I hooked up about six more times and was able to land three. All in all we had and good day and hooked some good size fish. Other than the previously mentioned fish above, all the fish caught ranged in size of 8 to 14 inches, and all faught like crazy. Some bigger ones were lost due to LDR. Others we talked to on the river, were having a tough day. I guess that just shows having a good guide will improve your odds a catching fish.
Thanks for the great day Ryan
I would post some pics, but do not know how to.
