Those
of you who made it to last year’s fishout know what a
great time it was. If you missed it last year, just ask
anyone that attended what fun we had.
One of
your California treasures is McArthur-Burney Falls State
Park, a wonderful location for our August fishout. We
hope to see all of you at this fishout. The meeting
place is at the state park. There is a message board on
the right as you enter the park.
This
is where will post our campground location and other
information as it comes up. We will make our base at
McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park. There are
motels in the town of Burney about 10 miles away.
From
our base, there are seven or more quality waters close
by: Burney Creek, Hat Creek, Pit River, Fall River,
McCloud River, Baum Lake, and Manzanita Lake. There are
also three fly shops with plenty of flies and
information.

fishing and beautiful surroundings. Rainbows and Browns
are typically caught in September. Some of the hatches
include Salmon Flies, Golden Stones, PMDs, Green Drakes,
Mahogany Duns, Sedges, Midges, Blue Winged Olives and
Trico Spinners
