This river is heating up this summer. Pits 3 through 7 definitely have fishable flows, but the lower you go the warmer the water gets. Make sure you horse them in quick and keep them in the water for that fast release. As will most of our area streams, the main hatch on the Pit is the Hydropsyche Caddis. Assorted species of mayflys are hatching here and there, it depends upon the type of water you are fishing. And there are all types of water in this drainage! Sculpins and Crayfish imitations are a good pick – try that olive Wooley Bugger you found in the tree up on the McCloud! It'll work!
