Report: The fishing up in Dunsmuir is so-so, the river is still high through town. Some have said the Salmonflies have come and gone. Golden Stones should be coming off soon. The flows on the lower end are now in the 900 CFS range. Checking out Simms and above would be where we would suggest. Keep a variety of Chubby Chernobyls on hand and fish dry-dropper. On sunny days you can possibly get a hatch, so a well-stocked dry box would be a shame to leave at home. We'd recommend fishing Hat Creek or the McCloud at Ash Camp for now.
