Good you got there early. I lease a cabin from the USFS that's on the cliff over the pool just upstream from White Rock. Maybe once a year I'll see some full-kit Orvis flyguy, but most times its just illegal immigrants making large stringers of 3" fish while their family washes downstream. F&G checks at White Rock parking lot maybe once a year, and bcs one guy has to cover so much area, a tip call is a waste of time. Huge holiday crowd, so since the water level is low and the fish are trapped in their pools, Red Rock is probably stripped by now. Here downstream, the moss is thickening, the water is fairly low, and a pebble pitched into the WR pool from 50ft up doesn't even get minnow checking it out. Having seen for myself when I was working on building the golf course, the very best SYR fish that aren't in the big bend above the Cachuma boom, are in the pools behind the golf course, particularly at the north end about where Stagecoach Road ends. The owner feeds them - only hitch is its private, and so illegal to fish. I asked the owner, and was told no rather bluntly; that he'll "fry" anyone he catches. No desire for prosecution or unmarked grave here! Sure wish I had the bucks to own such deluxe fishing holes! Sure glad the Cachuma ramp's only 11 miles from here - lot less effort and much better percentages than the river - even though I have a cabin on it, I only fish SYR right after the floods before the summer scum appear.
