Conditions

The South Fork Eel is closed to fishing until January 1, 2027 due to low-flow restrictions. As of October 29, flows measured 28 cfs at the Miranda gauge, well below the 340 cfs minimum required for the fishery downstream from Rattlesnake Creek. Plan to return after the new year when conditions may improve.
