Drift Boat Fishing Trips - Steelhead and Wild Trout

June 04, 2013 by Cary Jellison

We specialize in fly fishing trips for wild trout and steelhead on the Yuba River. The portion we fish is open 365 days a year and the fishing is good all year round. The Yuba is catch and release only with barbless hooks and artificial lures or flies, no bait. This allows the fish to grow to a large size, with the average trout between 14 and 17 inches long. These trout fight like no other - we break off at least one fish on most of our trips. We also guide on the American and Feather rivers.

You will be provided with top of the line Sage fly rods and Sage, Galvan or Ross reels, as well as leaders, tippet and flies for all trips but feel free to bring your own equipment. All of our equipment is top notch, including a state of the art Hyde Drift Boat. Hyde is well known for its quality and performance. You will enjoy the experience of fishing from a boat so comfortably designed. For more information on Hyde Drift Boats, feel free to call me or contact Hyde at www.hydeboats.com.

Full day trips last 8 hours and half day trips are 4 hours. Lunch and drinks are provided with all full day trips. Prices are for 1-2 people; third person is an additional $100.

Fishing License and Steelhead Report Card are required on the Yuba River, American River and Feather River. Prices do not include license, Steelhead Report Card or guide gratuities.
