Best fishing is in the afternoon. Some midges, and a few BWOs are hatching midday, but very few risers have been spotted. Also, try swinging a streamer or flesh fly on a sinking line. Lower Yuba River both above and below the Hwy 20 bridge is open. Current flow info.
Fishing is very slow.
Air temperatures as low as -20 have severely retarded the bite. There is small midge hatch midday, but the fish are not on them. Also, try fishing a streamer on a long leader with a slow retrieve. Ice on the banks and wind are factors. Fishing should improve once weather warms.
