Yuba question did the storm mess up the fishing for this weekend was thinking about taking the kayak out for a spin and tease a few pike any info would be great

I don't think the storm matters. Yuba has turned back into what it had been for a long while. Carp infested with a few pike swimming around. That mass of pike that we enjoyed the last few years was a result of a great high water year where they had a really good spawn. Now they have been yanked out left and right and consecutive low water years has led to poor spawning conditions. and there just aren't a ton swimming around. It's turned into more like musky fishing because of the low numbers. You still might have a chance at a decent one but you gotta get lucky. good luck!

I did good in December good size and good numbers
Hope it's not that bad as you say

just depends on your expectations I guess...I'm going off of how good it was 2-3 years ago when it peaked. Last year was really bad compared to that and from all indications it will be worse this season.... There are still a few but some people are just stoked to catch a couple which is great.... but for me it's too far for to drive for low numbers... I might combine it with carp shooting to justify chasing them again for a day. If you go let me know if those carp are going up shallow. good luck!
