McCloud River Fishing Report

The McCloud River continues to deliver good fishing with lots of surface action.  The golden stones are out thick and the fish are on them. I’ve been casting the Orvis Superfine fiberglass rod and its been a treat to catch some hard pulling fish on glass. Slow down and enjoy the river. A few bigger browns found their way to the net last week, giving us a twist of whats to come! Be ready for Golden Stones, Yellow Sallies, PMDs, Green Drakes, Grey Drakes and Hydrophysche Caddis.

•The Lower Sacramento = Excellent. Fishing has remained excellent and a drift is highly recommended.

•The Trinity River = Just Ok.  Flows are still high.

•The Upper Sacramento River =Good. Water is very low and already warming. Fishing is good but tread lightly.

•The McCloud River =Excellent. Some great dry fly fishing and shallow nymphing. We have been seeing plenty of golden stones, yellow sallies, pmds, and a few green drakes and salmonflies.

•The Klamath River =Good. The Salmonfly fishing has started early.

• The Pit River = Good. Remains good fishing at higher flows.

• Hat Creek = Just OK. Some tough days.

• The Fall River = Just OK. Always nice to see and cast a line but the fishing has been tough on many of the days.

•The Rogue River =Excellent. Fishing the Holy Water and the Shady Cove stretches has been great. The Salmonflys are out. Sea-run cutthroat and steelhead.

•The Wood River = Just OK. Never seen it so low.
