Scroll down to links for info on Lodging,
Maps and up to the minute Stream Flows

​

Current Conditions: 8,000 CFS
Fishing: Good: The Fly ShopTM in Redding   https://www.theflyshop.com  reports: "Overall the river is in good shape, it is clear, flows from Keswick are 7,000 CFS and we're eagerly anticipating the Fall Chinooks arrival. These flows open a lot of water to wading. Down around Jellys Ferry and downstream you should see some hatchery steelhead showing up, they are grabby and will take a swung fly. Big BWO hatches are happening in the late afternoon, midges in the morning. The caddis may or may not be happening, be prepared either way. Typically with stormy weather and lighter winds it's a mayfly op, but some off-brands of caddis, like Glossosomas and Brachycentrus, can make their appearance. Up top you will want to fish the BP Weiss Nymph, Jig nation in BWO, Olive Hotspot, Rubberlegs, and Jigged Bird's Nests. Lower in the river Rubberlegs, Peaches 'n Cream, Ginger Snap, Eng Thing, Olive Hotspot, Cinnamon Fox Poopahs, and Bird's Nests are good choices. Swing soft hackles or a dark Missing Link in last half hour of light."
