    Default L Yuba R conditions?

    I see that the Yuba is flowing around 6,000 cubes. Does anyone have any idea when it'll be fishable again? I sure am dying to get out and swing for some fish. It has been a LOOOONG season of nothing so far. Glad these major storms are finally over with so we can all have a chance to get out and hit the water!

    I will be surprised to see the river go below 3500-4000 anytime soon but I hope I'm wrong. It's now at 5k so maybe it will drop out. Clarity is a whole different issue. Call Tom at Reel Anglers for his opinion and experiences...he will have better info.

    It's going to be a while; https://yubanet.com/regional/nid-iso...ty-runs-milky/

    We may see another AR coming in next week, at minimum more precipitation for sure.

    Regardless, if the river comes down under 3,000 I will be out there swinging something dark just to keep in tune.

    The pain is real. - J.

    Jon, is the Yuba still muddy? I see it's been stable at 4500 the last few days.

    Yes it is. Projected flows to be around 15,000 by Saturday morning. Oh well, next year. - J.

    Thanks buddy. Yeah, the struggle is real right now. Seems like I will be putting some miles on the new vehicle going back and forth to the Trinity for the duration of the run up there. Maybe the low flow Feather is fishable but I bet that is pretty off color too.

    Sometimes there's a short gap of reduced flow in late May to early June before water transfer flows which begin in July and remain, in years like this, will be in the 3-4K range all summer. Flows will drop dow to 1-2K around 1st September.

    Wow! Back to 35,000 cfs with two more storms to go! This river will be pushed around once again. One of these days, maybe all the gravel will end up over Daguirre and into Marysville?! What the hell did they do with those gold dredges back in the day when the river blew out?
