California’s dismal winter snowfall has translated to a statewide snowpack only 17% of normal for this time of year.

Those specializing in small stream fly fishing will want to try those streams sooner rather than later, and those big runoff events that put some of California’s most popular rivers out of reach for a month or so?
Probably not an issue.
When asked about when the runoff event would render the Upper Sacramento River unfishable, Ted Fay Fly Shop owner said “it’s happening now — and the river’s completely fishable.”
