Late fall is an amazing time on the lower Yuba River. The salmon are spawning, trout and steelhead are feeding on salmon eggs, and the property is beautiful. This time of year can bring great fishing too, especially nymphing egg patterns behind salmon redds. If we are lucky, we may see a blue-winged olive and/or midge event, which can bring fish to the surface.

We will have access to about 2 miles of river, all on private property. Around the parking/staging area, access to the river is relatively easy, but to access the upper river requires hiking, up to nearly 2 miles in one direction. To fish the river, fly fishers must wade. Wading levels vary from easy to difficult, so you must know your limits. Fly fishers MUST have a Steelhead card in addition to their standard inland fishing license.

We will meet at the UC access gate between 8 a.m. and 8:30 a.m., where registrants will sign a UC waiver and fill out their steelhead cards before entering the property. Once all registrants show up and sign the waiver, or at 8:30 a.m., whichever happens first, all registrants will be allowed on the property. The gate will be closed and locked afterward. We need to be off the property before dusk. All registrants must arrange their own camping and lodging. There is a covered pavilion with picnic tables overlooking the water that provides a pleasant place to eat lunch.
