Winter Fly Fishing in Siskiyou County Can Be Excellent

While many of the state’s best fishing waters are closed, Sisikyou County offers anglers several great fishing choices, including:

• Catch & release fishing on the Upper Sacramento
• Good fishing for big, stocked trout on Lake Siskiyou
• Steelhead on the Klamath River

Solitude is common in winter.

Rumors of a 27″ brown trout caught (and released) by an Upper Sacramento River fly fishing guide seem to be true.

Meanwhile, on the right days, the Blue-Winged Olive (BWO) hatches remain steady, though the recent cold temperatures have kept the fish from moving a lot.

Local fly fishing guide Craig Nielsen has done well recently for Klamath River steelhead (read his fishing report here), and the reports of good-t0-great fishing on Lake Siskiyou keep coming in.

In other words, winter in Siskiyou County isn’t limited to skiing and snowshoeing (though the skiing on the mountain is supposed to be excellent). The fishing is often worth a trip too…
