Things have kicked into high gear on the McCloud. The road into Ah-Di-Na and the Conservancy as well as Ash Camp is clear. Some March Browns are coming off, and with the little bit of weather this weekend we could see some Green Drakes popping. Definitely bring Rubberlegs, brown or black in #6 or #8, Perdigons and Olive Hotspots. For the March Browns, a good 'ol Pheasant Tail in #14 will do the trick, bring some Adams in #14 when the fish are up top. Keep your Salmonfly dries ready, brown Chubby Chernobyls in #8 and and the Rogue Stones both work great. This spring should be a great one. To reserve a day with one of our expert guides to experience one of the most picturesque streams in the north state, call Chris or Bryan in Outfitters at (530)222-3555.
