​

Current River Conditions:  56 CFS and clear

Fishing - Fair:  The area hasn't received much snow yet so access should be good but remember that after November 15th the river from Hangman's Bridge upstream is catch and release with barbless hooks.  The big storm that is hitting northern California this week will probably have a negative effect the fishing.  Though their might be a nice BWO hatch if it is raining.  It's not expected to snow until later this week. ​

​

Worms, drowned Beatle and Ants are good flys to catch fish with this time of the year.
