Pit River Fish Report for 4-6-2026
This is a great river to fish a Euro rod and we highly recommend it
Pit River - CA (Modoc County)

Fishing conditions: Poor
Report: No news on the clarity of the river, the flows continue to be higher than what you would want to fish it. Overall, this river should be coming into shape in a couple of weeks and with the warm weather there should be a lot of mayflies and stoneflies coming off. We can't wait! In the meantime, you should check out the McCloud and Hat Creek.
This is a great river to fish a Euro rod and we highly recommend it. Be careful though, this can be a slippery river to wade. We recommend a wading staff when fishing the Pit.
Be aware that the flows on the Pit can and will change without notice, so definitely check before you go! And be prepared to get out when the river begins to rise.
Here are some useful links to monitor the flows:
Pit 3 - Below Pit 3 Dam
Pit 5 - Through Big Bend
