The Northern California Fly Fishing Board

POACHING!!! I remember going there and catching at least a couple 18 to almost 20 inchers....now it's all tiddlers. Best is about 11 or 12" now. (newsflash>>Most folks overestimate the size of fish!)

It'll get better when the salmon come but the trout that follow the salmon are pretty hard to catch. Those fish and the bigger residents just can't resist a fat nitecrawler. They'll move a long ways for a meal like that. I've seen trout hauled out by the stringerfull before. I think they've all been cleaned out.

From conversations I've had in the past with the DFG people, the warden won't patrol the river much at all now that it's deer season. What can ya do? Go to the highway and call cal tip anyway....there's a cell signal out near the hiway.

....on my way to platinum!!
