Thanks to consecutive high water years we have had an explosion of young fish, especially fish in the 8-14″ class, here, on the California side of the Truckee River. Job security for me, and a healthy trout river for all. We've been hooking tons of these guys lately, one can keep their rod bent all day right now. Of course, there are big fish too, and we've been hooking a few them as well. Flows are still at summer levels, and this fall, browns will have plenty water to move about and plant their seeds. The future looks bright for our finned friends.
