Northern California: , by Mat Squillante: What's Coming!: 3 stars

The crew's been on the Trinity, Lower Sac and Yuba in the past few weeks. Luke had a fair day on the Lower Sac a week ago. Winter weather is unpredictable everywhere but once February passes, the Sac should see fishing steadily improve. The Trinity's been fishing well, with adults and sub-adults brought to the net most days. Look for the river to remain viable until early March, when we start shifting trips to other waters. The Yuba continues to offer a nice option for something a little different. Throwing big dry flies in the middle of winter isn't viable in too many places but with the Skwala on the Yuba, February means game on. March browns, PMD's and Sulphers will soon pop and can offer some fun dry fly action. By late February, the Feather spring steelhead start showing up and will stick around through late May. These fish offer one of very few spring steelheading options and can be a lot of fun. While walk and wade trips are limited this time of year, March on Hat Creek is just around the corner and it should fish well.
