Yeah, I know, we’re in the dog days of summer and some of our N. California Rivers and Lakes are fishing great.  But, as the cool nights of Fall come, the fish will be looking up at flies a little more. 

One of our state’s treasures is Burney Falls St. Park, a special place for me.  I’ll never forget my first visit there, seeing the falls, my first Salmon Fly hatch, and catching beautiful wild trout.

The reasons I’m excited about this Fishout are the superb fishing and beautiful surroundings.  Large Rainbows and Browns are typically caught in October.  Some of the hatches include October Caddis, a multitude of other Caddis, midges, and Blue Winged Olives. 

We will make our base at McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park.  There are also motels in the town of Burney, about 10 miles away.  From our base, there are literally six or more quality waters:  Burney Creek, Hat Creek, Pit River, Fall River, McCloud River, Manzanita Lake, and others.  There are also three fly shops with plenty of flies and information.

Please contact Karl Wolff at kwolff@qwestonline.com or (916) 719-0860 if you want to sign up or have any questions.  Camping reservations will not be required and are not taken.  I will arrange to have our campsites in the same area.  There will be a sign up sheet at the general meeting.
