Big Changes - Lower Yuba River

[Troutstalker55B]

The river has dropped, but not down to stable fishable flows. I went out on a recon mission yesterday to see the damage and the changes. It's impressive. Looking forward to spring when conditions settle into place, and learning this new river. For a brief report and some images click here; http://jonbaiocchiflyfishingnews.blo...ver-today.html - J.

Looks like we have a new River and it may change again after this next storm comes through. Thanks Jon.

As I understand it, rivers change so guys can't map it, name holes....and pummel certain spots................
Better to have to relearn a river every year.....
Keeps you fresh too....I find it amusing when I fish on auto, in a run I "knew" only to find, it's not my run anymore.....

Change is the only constant in nature...besides Man"s search for predictability.

Am I correctly seeing that the pine tree river left and upstream of miners corner is completely gone?

Yep, Ashley's shade tree is gone! She's pretty bummed

Unbelievable. I wonder if that tree got hung up in the lower river somewhere, or if its out in the delta now.

I need to take a drive up that way in the next 2 weeks and take a look at what has happened.
