5/25 -- VERY GOOD

"Salmonflies and stonefly time on the Pit River. Seems like a lot of different fly patterns are working through out the day. Big stonefly patterns all the way down to #18 Zebra Midges. The fishing has been great."


5/11 -- GOOD

5/6: "Springtime weather and great water conditions define the Pit River this week. Fishing has been mostly good, but a few tough reports have been floating around. Tough wading can be held responsible for those less than great reports."


5/4 -- GOOD

"The Pit is happening. Good insect hatches, good water and ransacking rainbows. Bring an extra selection of dry clothes"


4/27 -- GOOD

"Fair to good sums up the fishing on the Pit river. Conditions are getting better and better. This sunny warm weather will have the March Browns coming off!"  Or, "The fishing as well as the catching has been superb!"
