This is a 500 acre fly-fishing paradise located in the remote northern California wilderness near the Pit River and Big Bend California. Four spectacular lakes and a 1/2 mile meandering spring creek offer some of the most exciting trophy trout fishing found anywhere. These catch and release waters are open only to our guests, ensuring a private and un-pressured fishery. This is a fly-fishing only resort (no spin or bait fishing) catering to serious adult anglers (children 12 years of age or older are welcome).
Back country fly-fishing here is a unique experience. It offers privacy and unparalleled exposure to nature ~ you are bound to spot soaring eagles, nesting honkers, turkey, quail, otter, beaver, deer, fox, or an occasional bear or mountain lion.
