McCloud Reservoir

Fishing on McCloud Reservoir remains hot despite some smoke haze and bananas on board haha. The Trout action on McCloud is fantastic.

One of the best ways is to slow troll (1 to 2mph) a hammered gold dodger with various curly trailed grubs dipped in Pro-Cure shrimp krill oil. That set up...

Brown Action - Lake Siskiyou

Siskiyou Lake
