Good Option

This spot should continue to be a good option as long as it does not get too colored up. Right now we have pretty good conditions, definitely worth a shot! Suspending (under an indicator) #14 Birds Nest, #16 Dark Lord or a Copper John can work great! Sinking lines and streamers too!

Stripping leeches and buggers on a type VII full sink line works great here. Fish going over 20" happen! Releases out of Shasta Dam have been stable. Good place to hire a guide though. Finding these fish requires some special knowledge and a boat.

Indicator suspended Birds Nests, Midges, PT Nymphs should work along the edges of the fast water near the Dam. Suspend your flies about 2-3 feet below the indicator. These fish like to come up to the fly. Fish the shallow edges. Stay low!! You will need a motorized boat to get to where the good fishing exists.
