Fishing Report-Fair:
Yuba Guide Perry Sims https://www.yubariverclub.netreports: "Yuba has been just ok, coming off the mid-summer doldrums,
not much in the way of hatches, and still early for the Salmon egg drop. Very small, random hatches;
Small sz 18 black caddis
A few PMD’s
Even saw some trico sz 20’s recently
Best hatch time, what there is of it, has been in the am"
