In the 1970 fly fishing and fly shops were booming in California.
Hat Creek was so deep that you could only "edge wade" it.

In the 1970s everyone drove North in CA to trout fish.

Bob,
I have lived here in the Cassel and Burney area since 1976 and have fished Hat all those years. Hat is mainly fed by springs, Rising River and other springs around Baum lake. The flow from upper Hat is very miniscule during the summer months, water rights for irrigation gets most of summer flow.
I can only remember once in about 1998 where upper Hat creek had flooded because of a warm snow run off after Jan 1. That was mostly spread out in the upper valley fields above the confluence with Rising River. There has not, to my knowledge, been a flow high enough to move any of the slug since it has developed. PGE has not varied the flow any to effect the lower Hat. It has diverted the flow from Baum down the old stream bed during work related to the power house and canal.
