Pit River Access...Ruling Creek Campground?

[TyV]

Fished the Pit last weekend, drove in from Burney. Only saw one other group on the water, only one camper/fisherman at Ruling. We stayed at the "primitive" campground just down the road. Fishing was decent considering how hot it was but we managed a few, seemed partial to a smaller dark fly (ap, copper john black, etc) on the bottom with an emerging type lighter caddis on top, 50/50 on the take. Watch for snakes, they are out and of course poison oak (I found them both). Fished 3 and 4, both good, wading was manageable but be safe...

Thank you so much for the post! Glad to hear you got into a few. Stoked to hear access is open again to Ruling Creek and the other unimproved camps. I tend to use Ruling in the heat of summer due to a lot more shade throughout the day and bathroom access. Cant complain about $8/day really. Will be heading that way soon.Thanks again.

Which camping site is your favorite one? A good place for ice fishing lovers like me: ludingtonicefishing.com/ It's the best camping and fishing site I know and it's convenient.
