Lost Sierra Fly Guides: Exploring the Northern Sierra Watershed

Based in Plumas County—just an hour north of Lake Tahoe—Lost Sierra Fly Guides specializes in guided fly fishing adventures throughout the rugged and remote Northern Sierra watershed. At the heart of this pristine landscape is the Wild and Scenic Middle Fork Feather River, a crown jewel of California’s trout fisheries.

Our region offers a diverse range of world-class fly fishing opportunities, from the still waters of Lake Almanor and Lake Davis to the dynamic, wild trout section of the North Yuba River. Whether you're a seasoned angler or new to fly fishing, the Lost Sierra offers a truly unique experience in a remote and breathtaking setting.

Join Matt McCourtney, owner and head guide, as he takes you on an informative and immersive tour of the waters he knows intimately and guides with passion.
