Water Conditions: Red Hot! Flows are good. We had a great spring season, excellent summer and are anticipating an outstanding Fall for the adventurous anglers unafraid of the 15 minute hike down into the canyon.

Fishing Conditions & Hatches: This fabulous secluded freestone stream harbors tremendous populations of 100% wild, native trout in the 12-18 inch range. It's like having miles of the Pit or McCloud River all to yourself! This is adventurous fishing, with no trails and paths. Only physically fit anglers need apply. This is how fishing should be!

The Fly Shop's Tips: ??The deep-water nymphing on this stream can be fantastic. It's definitely the most productive method here. Sometimes we'll carry a sink-tip line and swing streamers in the deeper slots and hook into some large meat-eating fish. Dry and dropper can be deadly at certain times of the year. Stone hatches in the spring can be mind-blowing! The "Coleman Ditch", more like a spring creek, on the property is absolutely loaded with 14-18" rainbows. It's open to all Battle Creek guests who fish the ranch.
