Plumas County Fishing Report for the week of 6/15/2011

Michael Condon

Stream fishing

A couple days of heavy rain last week followed (finally) by some warm weather have increased the runoff. Stream flows on many area streams have actually increased over the last week or two.

My advice to stream anglers: consider fishing some of our many fine local lakes for the next couple weeks.

If you are determined to fish a stream make sure to present your offering deep. Current conditions are not conducive to surface feeding.

Flows are higher and the water is colder than it usually is this time of year. Use extreme caution when wading.

 

FRC Rodeo team competes in Casper Wy

Shannon Morrow -

This Sunday, the best college rodeo teams in the nation will gather in Casper, Wyo., for the week-long College National Finals Rodeo June 12 – 18.

One of the top schools at the national championships will be the Feather River College men’s team, which again dominated the West Coast Region this year.

  

Is summer here yet?

Michael Condon

We may finally be on the verge of some “normal” weather (whatever “normal” is). But the past few weeks have been anything but normal.  I have been chased off the water by lightning and by high winds. I have cancelled several outings due to winter storm warnings and just plain windy weather.

Those who did brave the weather when they could usually did reasonably well.

JoAnn Lake had the best low gross score in the second flight. First place low net was won by Lois Childress. There was a tie for second place low net between Linda Bilger and Dee Walker.

 

  

So what good is a fishing report?

Michael Condon

So what good is the information in this or any other fishing report?

A good friend of mine raised this question after spending a few days fishing at Lake Almanor.

He hadn't done all that well. He even went so far as to suggest that this report is a "Chamber of Commerce fishing report." Ouch!

Let me put that accusation into perspective.
