Product Review: Cytomax Performance Drink

For those of you who know me I'm always very vocal about sharing good info as to help others. Fly anglers are a breed all their own, we live in a world of the great outdoors and are compassionate about getting the most out of life. Summer is not that far off and I can only think about dropping into canyon water like the North Fork Yuba and presenting a hopper pattern to a willing trout. This kind of fishing is demanding and we need all the help we can get so the experience is a good one. Bonking out with zero energy climbing up a steep canyon gorge after a day of fishing is not one of them. Ever get cramps when your out float tubing kicking long distances? Cytomax is the answer for such displeasure. My other passion when I'm not on the water is cycling, it's great therapy and even better keeps me trim and healthy. Fuel and hydration are two key elements for the body. I highly recommend Cytomax Performance Drink for the demands of high level activity!

Ice Out At Lake Davis Is On!

Well, I was off on my prediction of Lake Davis "popping" open from the ice this year by about 10 days, when it goes it goes quickly! Right now the lake is about 50% open water and should be totally free after this weekend's windy conditions. Water temps are running 40-42 degrees. The creeks are flowing and in the next few weeks expect spawning rainbows to be ganging up around them and staging. As always the west shore road will be snowed in for the next 3 weeks at least and Grizzly road on the east side is clear to Lightning Tree. Look for giant blood midge to be hatching in the next few weeks with small chironomids mixed in. As the fish get on the spawn Hot Orange Glimmer can work wonders whether it is a wooly bugger or a wiggle tail pattern. I know your smiling right now! Let the games begin!

Lower Yuba River Report 3/13/13

Tim H. of Yuba City fighting a healthy 15" Rainbow caught on a PMD Sparkle Dun

Warm weather and plenty of sunshine was bountiful today on the Lower Yuba. PMD mayflies were out in full force and there were many fish rising for duns and emergers through out the day. Technical presentations were a must and had to be spot on with your fly drifting first. Skwala stone flies were out as well crawling on the shoreline rocks and flying. I did not see any fish take one on the water though. The fished were keyed in on the PMD's big time! Effective dry flies were PMD Sparkle Duns, and Quigley Cripples in sizes 14 and 16. If you plan on fishing the river look for pods of rising trout and approach cautiously, they are spooky right now and can be put down by a bad cast.

Everyday is different here, but I suspect with these warm temps the bugs will be out and the fish looking up. Good luck out there!
