putting up some serious numbers. still playing that "everytime the indicator goes under" its a fish game?
I don't play that game and don't fluff numbers. Anyone that fishes with me knows that. I play the everytime the bobber goes down, client sets and the line goes tight on a fish game. Im on that river daily and see the changes in where the fish hangout and that is key as it changes throughout the day. It doesn't hurt that the take out is 15 mins from my house. Plus the Yuba is one cool fishery, why wouldn't I want to bring my clients to the Yuba and have them play with some bad ass Yuba trout.

Has anyone had any decent luck swinging more classic steelhead patterns on the Yuba? I’m thinking smaller size 6-8 GBS, Hilton’s, Hobo, etc. I got a new-to-me 3wt ACR that I need to get some reps on but wouldn’t mind finding a tug in the process. Of course I can just go cast a sculpin but I thought something more traditional might be fun and even effective.
How about skaters or muddlers even?!
How about the Bread crust? Hilton might. Only one way to find out.
I used to fish smaller versions of the bread crust on the Yuba, but that was years ago.
I’ve had luck with small black leach patterns. Klamath intruder, olive or black.
White woolly bugger with some pork rind stuck on the hook. That’ll do it.
There are few things in life more pleasing than the sublime marriage of form and function that is found in a well crafted fly rod.

I used a green/peacock Herniator one day just because I still had it tied onto my leader from a Trinity trip. I'm thinking that it was a size 8. It caught fish. I imagine anything sparkly like that might get a grab.
A Brindle Bug has worked on occasion too.
