Lower Yuba 1/14
(
1 2
)
(Preview)
Hit the Lower Yuba yesterday on a whim. The spring crowds are beginning already as there were 10 guys above the bridge.

Yuba Killer?
(Preview)
You know those days on the Yuba when fish are rising all around you. And you try every fly in your box. And you know the fish are taking emergers by the way they are rising. This may be the solution......
