Current River Conditions: 247 CFS below Downieville. 

​Fishing-Good: Reports from the Yuba all seem to be good. Dry fly action is going strong as is nymphing in th seams and deeper holes.  Elk Hair Caddis or Adams Parachutes will do the trick for fishing dries and Hare's Ears, Birdsnests and Pheasant Tails are good bugs for nymphing.  There may be some Golden Stones still hanging around too.
