FISHING Plumas County's 1,000 miles of streams and more than 100 lakes of the Feather River watershed make for a varied fishery. Whether you're a fly fisher or prefer to use lures and bait, you'll find plenty of places to reel them in. Native rainbow trout are the predominant game fish, but German browns and brook trout also have been established in many areas. A special strain of rainbow, known as Eagle Lake trout, is found in many of the major lakes. Other game fish include Mackinaw (lake trout), kokanee salmon, largemouth and smallmouth bass, bluegill and catfish. Lakes are open to fishing year round and the stream season usually opens on the last weekend of April and closes in the middle of November. Some streams are not open until the end of May and close at the end of September. Some waters have special barbless catch-and-release provisions.

FLY FISHING Whether you're a fly fisher or prefer to use lures and bait, you'll find plenty of action and surprisingly large trout in small creeks. The most common aquatic insects of the Feather River are several species of mayflies, caddis flies and stoneflies. The main sections of the Feather River are the North Fork and Middle Fork. The Middle Fork is a federally listed Wild and Scenic River from the outflow of Sierra Valley that runs adjacent to Nakoma. The wild river section downstream from the Quincy-La Porte Road bridge is accessible by steep foot trails and provides excellent fishing for strong hikers. Upstream, in the more easily reached stretch near Highway 70 east of Quincy, the Middle Fork holds some nice, if sometimes angler-shy, rainbows and browns. Fall fishing is particularly good.
