The heat’s turning on up here this week, and not just in the work sense.
We’ve been treated to surprisingly stable flows on the Upper Sacramento and (especially) the McCloud, and local guide Craig Nielsen suggests the dry fly fishing on the McCloud’s been stellar.

As always, see you on the river, Tom Chandler.
The American is running at slightly over 12,000 cfs right now, but is fishable, if only slightly. I don’t look for it to come down significantly for some time. Fished it yesterday afternoon/evening. No fish, but what a beautiful sunset!

I have to check the gages, but a quick look out the window makes it clear there’s a *lot* of snow on the mountains surrounding TU/Man Cave World Headquarters.
Still fishable at 12,000 cfs? Dang….
