    Default Shasta Area Report: McCloud, Pit, Klamath, LSac, USac, Fall River & Hat Creek

    Our newest fishing report has just been posted. We are now a bit over a month into the regular trout season and the fishing has been surprisingly good, particularly considering the wet and wacky weather we have been experiencing. The Redbud and Dogwoods are in full glory with more wildflowers popping each day. Birds are nesting and hatching their young. The weather has caused most of the hatches to get started late, with the BIG Salmonflies and Goldenstones just getting going.

    With a near record snow pack most folks expected flows to be abnormally high but this has only been the case on the Upper Sacramento River. The McCloud, Pit, and Lower Sac flows have been good to great while the Klamath has been below the norm. On the Fall River and Hat Creek, we have enjoyed some exceptional spring creek fishing including some dry fly fishing that is the best you might imagine. With fair weather forecast and June-uary nearly behind us we expect the fishing to take off starting next week.

    For a complete report visit the ShastaTrout.com website which also features the finest local guides. We're on local waters as much individually as our biggest competitor's guides are collectively. Of course we are always happy to point you in a direction you might most enjoy whether you are seeking a guide or not. Do drop us a line if you are headed our way.

    Default Lower McCloud River Blown out/ Bridge removed from Klamath

    Just a few updates since our fishing report:
    On Sunday the Lower McCloud River turned the color of coffee and cream. Water at Ah Di Na is less turbid because of tribs upstream contributing (mostly Hawkins Creek) but today had about a foot and a half of visibility. Here is a link to a photo below the dam taken by fellow local guide, Rick Cox.
    We had a warm storm last week which caused Mud Creek to rise and discolor portions of the lake and the McCloud River. Hopefully it will clear soon. Feel free to drop us a line for the latest.
    The "footbridge" between the Klamathon Bridge and I5 on the Klamath River has been removed and boat passage has been restored.
