General Information: Now open Year Round from Lake Britton to Shasta Lake!

We've not had any reports since the rain/snow hit, but our best guess is that the Pit is not fishable right now.

Reports from the Pit River had been GREAT before the storms, however, a little slow in the mornings, but very good in the afternoon and evening, with some real big rainbows getting hooked! Fishing Conditions & Hatches: The reports that we have been receiving from the few anglers that have been fishing recently have been good. High stick nymphing with darker pattterns seems to be the most effective.

Flies: ?Ģ Copper Johns #14-16 ?Į?Ģ Midges ?Į?Ģ Mercer's Z-Wing #14-16?Į?Ģ GB Black A.P #12-18?Į?Ģ GB Prince nymph #14-16?Į?Ģ Dark Lord #14-16 ?Į?Ģ Black Rubberlegs #6-8?Į?Ģ Shafer's 3D Nymphs #10?Į?Ģ Poxyback Micro Stone

The Fly Shop's Tips: ??Be ready for tough wading conditions when fishing this river. Flat ground DOES NOT exist here! A wading staff is highly recommended.... almost mandatory. Many bones (wrist, arm, ankle, leg) and fly rods (Sage, Loomis, Scott, etc..) have been broken here. Move slow, and keep solid footing while in the water. (But just in cast...pack some dry clothes, snake kit and don't forget to dry out your fly-box at the end of the day!)
