The lower American River is suppose to be down to 5,000 cfs on Tuesday, April 5 so as soon as we hear that the Halfpounders are eating caddis in the afternoon/evening I will be there.
After work on the week nights in the Spring and Fall is a prime time fishery on the lower American River for Halfpounder Steelhead on caddis imitations.
Keep you gear in the car and hit it for the next few months till it gets too hot. The warmer it gets, the more it is early and late fishing and slower in the mid-day.
This is true on most low elevation/Valley rivers unless they are at a high flow.
