Hey Tayler,
I think this post was mostly about standing on or fishing in the Redds, I don't think most people care what kind of rod you use or if you use bait or a bobber, at least I don't

100% agreed. We are fisherman first before being labeled as a specific type of fisherman. I love dry fly fishing the yuba in Feb and March as long as trolling for land locked kings and big browns on big swim baits isn't red hot. As far as the people dredging redds at the yuba I guess the spawn is over at putah creek. There’s always gonna be those people. They all run out of their cars and grab a spot just above the bridge. Line up shoulder to shoulder. It’s sad.
I was one of those guys that fished before school and had a 22 rifle in the gun rack of my pickup at high school. The gun rack was the first thing I added to my truck when I got it. Bottom rack had a ruger 22 and top rack had some type of fishing rod at all times. Funny I was just telling some people how you used to be able to walk in a sporting goods store and buy a gun and walk out same day. They couldn’t believe it. Also the part about always having a rifle in the back window of my truck. It was a jaw dropper. I just said we were a lot more free and responsible back then. Then I dropped the bomb about how I used to ride my bike to thrifty drug store and get a ice cream cone and 500 rounds of 22 ammo when I was a kid. Defiantly a different world now.
Yes Tim,
We were so dam lucky to be born when we were.
Funny though, we go to rural America and lots of it is the same there now as it was during our childhood except instead of bicycles the
kids ride ATVs from farm to farm and to go fishing and hunting. God bless America.......

Well, since we are talking Steelhead, I can't tell you about the lower Yuba river today, but I can let you know that myself and ten others had no luck on the lower American river today. No one I talked to today even had a grab.
