South of the Warden Earl Hiscox, fishing in Jak-Middle Yui a, sotes Game es and streams is closed until May 30th, Decoration Day. Neck Hiscox declares: that due to subnormal rainfall and snowfall the fishing season opens with conditions very similar to, those of midsummer in nonmal the streams are low and clear and the weather sufficiently mild to make lake fishing good. He thinks salmon and. royal coachman flies will bring good results on opening day in Sierra County. He states all the creeks flowing in on the north side of the Middle Yuba will give fishermen many limits on opening day. Oregon Creek in Yuba County is one of the most notable of fishing streams that flowsinto the Middle Yuba. : Since Nevada County is closed to fishing until May 30th, Decoration Day, it is anticipated the big rush of anglers on May 1st will center on Sierra County. Hiscox warns that fishing on the Middle Yuba must be done from the north bank in Sierra County and-not from the south bank in Nevada County where the season. does not optn until 30 days later. In Sierra County the North Fork, Hiscox states, is low and clear and all the streams flowing into it are in admirable condition for fishing. Above Downieville are many streams, incliding the North Fork of the North Fork, of the Yuba River which Ac h normally yield good catches every year, but are usually much later, than is the case this year.
