SIR Bidwell Branch 110 Piscatology
Our Fishing group meets each month for breakfast
at 7:00 A.M. on the 2nd Thursday at Cozy Diner Restaurant. Please
join us, if you enjoy fishing. We take a number of trips to Lassen and Plumas Counties as well
as Ft Bragg. We'll stay in member's summer homes and do some
camping as well. Both trolling from boats and fishing from the
bank are enjoyed by our members. Our group consists of about twenty members
and new members are always
welcome.
You do not need a boat, just a fishing
license. For more information contact Dana Davis or Bill Colvin.

Fishing on Lake Davis & Frenchman Lake, September 23-25, 2025.
The lake was green with algae and may have been turning over. They experienced some fairly stiff winds that came up mid morning and persisted into the afternoon. They did however, manage to land a couple of fish on day one. On day two, three boats went to Frenchman and the water and weather was better but only Bruce Crowson caught one fish. Larry and the two Steve's stayed with Lake Davis and caught a few nice rainbows about 16-17". The final trip of the year is at Lewiston and Trinity Lakes on October 28-30.
