Sierra Pacific Flyfishers, the Southwest Council Federation of Fly Fishers, and CalTrout are excited to announce a Super Raffle for a very special Prize; a 3-day / 2-night stay for up to 6 guests at CalTrout’s Shasta Springs Trout Camp. The value of this incredible fishing opportunity is $1,500.
The Camp: Located on 40 beautiful acres in the famed Upper Sacramento River Canyon, the camp is nestled among black oaks on a picturesque flat along a remote, lightly fished stretch of the Upper Sacramento River between Dunsmuir and Cantara Loop. Since 2001 CalTrout has owned and used it as a place for members to learn about CalTrout conservation activities, and to raise public awareness of its efforts to protect wild trout, steelhead, and their threatened habitat. The Fishing: This private-access section of the Upper Sac is a 5 minute walk from camp. The stream is as unspoiled as it was 100 years ago. A small, steep, classic freestone stream of crystal clear water. Fish exclusively for the Upper Sac's renowned, feisty wild rainbow trout. Sizes vary from 10 to 22 inches, with a shot at a top end fish in each run. For complete details download Caltrout's
