    Default It's August already

    Am I the only one who has been thinking about the Klamath? Thinking about going up in the first half of September.

    I'm a poor time-starved man living in the Sac area, so I've been thinking about the American. Last year in August I started an 8-month stretch of fishing there every weekend. August had some great action.

    i can't wait for this fall, already started tying flies. Will probably wait till October though and spend a few weeks up there, work permitting again. Had excellent fishing the second and third weeks of October last year, unless the fish were sort of late? It was my first time on the Klamath and first time fishing for summer runs in general.

    For the first time, we are going to add the 2.5 hours to our drive and fish the Rogue this fall. I am really looking forward to getting on a piece of water that is new to me. I have fished the Trinity extensively, the Klamath a bit, and a reasonable amount on the coast. Looking forward to it.

    Bruce Slightom was a fly fishing jet boat guide on the lower Klamath river for many decades.

    He thinks mid-September is the best time to start serious trips to the lower river.


    I think October is the best month to go to the middle Klamath river.


    Like Terry Thomas and his group, if you can go up there 3 or 4 times a year then go in mid-August.

    Chris Pasley and I were invited in August for a free day jet boat trip with Mac out of Time Flies.

    Fish were active for maybe 1 or 2 hours in the early morning, then a huge break mid-day, sleeping in the sand under the willows, and

    a hour bite in the evening? Not really much fishing time in August.


    **I would go up there to the middle Klamath river with a travel trailer for 2 months (Sept 15-Nov 15) in the Fall if I was single.

    If you could RV camp up there for the month of October, on a good year, it would change your life forever.

    I would love to spend a month up there and this year I plan on doing no less than 4-5 days each time I go. I will say that I won't ever go in November again. The days are too short and unless you are doing a float you can easily waste the day away in the truck going from spot to spot.
