Event Description: Introduction to the Yuba River Skwala Hatch



This Club developed session is to prepare members for the current and upcoming Skwala hatches on the lower Yuba river in January through March.  The course material consists of Skwala hatch entomology, suggested flies, recommended rigging, local maps, and successful fishing techniques, as well as local guide tips.

The Skwalas begin hatching in early January and are known as the first big bug hatch of the year and last until the end of March.  They can occur, weather dependent, in large populations of both dry flies and hatching nymphs that attract large fish in the Yuba, including Steelhead. 

Class Curriculum:

Session will focus on Skwala identification and hatch progression.  It will also include typical dry flies and nymphs to fish (with recommended vendors), leader and tippet rigging, Yuba river maps and recommended places to fish, and suggested techniques for successfully fishing the hatch with nymphs and dries.
