It's 40 degrees and raining lightly here in Mount Shasta, so anyone participating in the
Trout Underground's Annual Windup to the End of the General Trout Season That We Just Invented should remember that rain and snow are cold, vicious states of matter, and dress accordingly.
And because I'm teaching another marketing class tonight (this one on email/e-newsletter marketing for small business), I'm on yet another treadmill, where I work a lot and think about fly fishing instead of actually doing it.
Still, tomorrow beckons, and I expect to finally fish a little, if only because if I grow any pastier, I'll be accused of wearing my Casper the Ghost costume long after Halloween ends.
It's a far cry from the bad old days, when winter meant damned little fishing was available up here. Now the Upper Sac and Pit Rivers are open for winter fishing, and on November 15, it's no longer necessary to confiscate kitchen knives from morose fly fishers.
The Linkmeister ComethIt's a time of year when I don't post a report about every fishing trip I take, but to feed the hungry maw of the Underground's readership, I have added a few helpful local links to my
Links page:
- Upper Sacramento flows
- McCloud River flows (& turbidity)
- Where to find CDEC flows for all California Rivers
- Local weather (Shasta, Dunsmuir, Redding)
- CalTrans NorCal freeway cameras
What else would the Undergrounders find useful?
See you on the river (eventually), Tom Chandler.
