San Gabriel mountains has been really dry since spring of 2012. Pretty much unfishable, sad really, 2010-2011 was awesome. Don't know about SB, but figure it's about the same, because the drought issue is state wide.

Fished the Santa Ana River near Seven Oaks a few months back, water was very low but fishable. We got skunked but some dude flyfishing was having a great day. Guess thats the way to go when fishing small streams for skittish trout.

Damn. Well lets hope that turns around soonish. Im planning a trip towards the end of the month to fish up there but havent decided on which stream/river I wanna go to yet. Anyone done fishing at deep creek on the backside of sb mountains?

[Hotbite909]

Yea! what they said. It not worth your time..

About half the streams I've checked out have become mostly fishless over this last dry summer. Going to be a long, hard recovery for them, San Gab and San Bern both

I fly fished SAR last weekend. The water is low, but still fishable. The fish are really skittish though.

Have you tried bleaching the stream?

I heard that gets even the most skittish fish to end up in someone's creel.
