Striper Fishing Part 2

Went back out to look for stripers... Don't know where they were. Caught a few funny looking trout? Silver trout I think. They fight much better than brownies and rainbows.

Went striper fishing with the former PCT leader. Gary caught this mystery fish! I was just having a hard time casting my 9wt with a sinking tip. Gary says it is easier to catch the shad in a few weeks. I can't wait for the shad.

The flows were over 2300, Deer Creek was at 119 CFS, meaing the Lower Yuba was probably muddy. There was a chance of rain. I decided the hell with it, I had to run up. Worst that could happen w...

Finally, a weekend filled with fishing.
(Preview)
Starting with TODAY. Friday the 19th. A tailwater near the town of clements surprised me with over 30 fish between me and my brother. Most fishes were 6-12 inchers. I had 2 that were 16 inches or so. No measure net. All I gotta say is, that place is burning hot right now. Strike wise, and tempurature wise....

Truckee River this time of year?

I might be in Tahoe City this weekend and the budget isn't happy enough to rent skis or buy lift tickets. Would the Truckee be worth fishing this time of year? If not, then I might hit the Yuba or the American. I know my way around the Truckee during the summer but have never tried winter fly fishing...
