Yuba County Fishing Reports
Checkout the latest Yuba County fishing reports from local anglers and businesses.
Contrasting reports are coming from the Feather. Some anglers say the shad and striper action is slowing down, while others note it's been spectacular. The assumption is that the truth lies somewhere in between. Fly anglers are also still finding some late-exiting spring steelhead on stoneflies.
The Upper Sac trout bite has been solid, with flows stabilizing. Dry fly action peaks early, transitioning to nymphs as the day progresses. An evening caddis hatch is sparking a lot of action late in the day. The Lower Sac is cooling off for both shad and stripers. Shad can still be caught, but not...
The Upper Sac trout bite has been solid, with flows stabilizing. Dry fly action peaks early, transitioning to nymphs as the day progresses. An evening caddis hatch is sparking a lot of action late in the day.
The Lower Sac is cooling off for both shad and stripers. Shad can still be caught, but not for much longer. Your best bet is near the Rossmoor Bar. The best time for stripers is early morning and late evening, as boat traffic has really affected the bite midday.
No more trout stockings are expected this year, but holdover rainbows are still being caught by trollers on blade/worm combinations, focusing their efforts on the deepest areas of the lake. Bass, crappie, and catfish action is increasing as the weather warms. For bass, shallow finesse presentations...

Bass, crappie, and catfish action is increasing as the weather warms. For bass, shallow finesse presentations have been best.
Kokanee are moving deeper as the water temperature continues to warm, but the bite is still on. Trollers are pulling spinners and spoons in orange and/or pink up to 60 feet. Catch size is improving with a couple of 14 inchers reported. Spotted bass action is still good on smaller finesse plastics...

Catch size is improving with a couple of 14 inchers reported. Spotted bass action is still good on smaller finesse plastics and swimbaits.
The spotted bass are here and biting! Smaller fish in numbers are being caught off points and drop-off transitions on soft-plastics either drop-shotting or on a shaky head. A few big ones over 6 pounds were caught on swimbaits. Still a lot of small Kokanee around the lake. Trollers are targeting...

Still a lot of small Kokanee around the lake. Trollers are targeting between 20-40 feet with orange hoochies or spinners. But for size you may need to look elsewhere.
Trout fishing continues to be good as the water clears. Trollers are getting surface bites early, then targeting 15-25ft by late morning. Shore-casters have also had success, especially those throwing nightcrawlers and powerbait.
