If you are looking to get into some Steelhead, this is a killer option. Both hatchery & wild steelhead call the feather river home. The natives are Central Valley Steelhead with feather river hatchery steelhead supplemented, both very hard fighting fish pound for pound. They tend to go air-born when hooked, with long fast runs into your backing. Sometimes it’s quality over quantity, other times is quantity and quality. summer/fall/winter/spring depending on the flows. Salmon make their way up as well, trigging the steelhead to follow for what’s known as the “egg bite” & this is when the fishery really shines! By catch’s can include shad, pike minnow, sucker fish and stripped bass. Overall a really fun venue! Let me show you around! -The trip covers 2 anglers, rods, flies, & tackle are included -cold drinks & deli style lunch -Typically fish for around 8-12 hours -meetup location Oroville, Ca -Boat type, Clackacraft -Must bring fishing license/steelhead card 530-690-6636 for meetup address and time!
