In the FlyFishFinder appAbout Lavezzola Creek
Lavezzola Creek is a small spring creek in the Lower Sacramento watershed of California. Our map shows about 17 miles of water and one access point.
The creek holds rainbow trout and brown trout. Wild rainbows in the 8 to 12 inch range are the norm. Healthy runs and pocket water make it a fun stream for small fish on a light rod.
Hatches include Blue-Winged Olives, March Browns, Pale Morning Duns and midges. Hopper season brings terrestrial fishing later in the year.
The North Yuba River, Middle Yuba River and Middle Fork Feather River are nearby if you want a bigger water option.
Check current California Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations before you fish.
