I have heard so many different reports on this lake. What species are in Yuba? If you have caught fish & took pictures in yuba ... please post them here. I have heard that there were Pike, Perch, Smallmouth, Rainbow and now Channel Cats? What the crap?

Don't forget Walleye.
It used to be one of the best fisheries in the state for ol marble eyes and now that the perch have rebounded, it will be again.
I have never heard of smallies in there but I guess it shouldn't come as much of a surprise.

[cool][#0000ff]I am a "Yuba-ite" going back over 30 years. It has always been one of my favorite fishing holes...expecially the spillway area below the dam...before vandals got it closed to fishing.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I agree with the list you posted...at least in the past. It will probably be a while before we can either confirm or deny the continued existence of some of those fishies, since the lake was drained.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Since Yuba is on the Sevier River drainage, virtually any fish found further upstream could pop up in Yuba...including both smallmouth and largemouth. I caught both in years past. Not a lot, but once in a while. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]We had all better do a heavy SNOW DANCE this winter unless we want that lake to revert to a carp filled mudhole again.[/#0000ff]
