Nearly every fly fisherman is familiar, at least by name, with the famed Fall River for its legendary status in the world of trout fishing. While Fall River is certainly the gem of this area, it makes up just a part of an expansive, interconnected spring system that hosts a wealth of recreational opportunities. Big Lake, Horr Pond, and Eastman Lake are also spring fed, connecting to the Fall River via the Tule and Little Tule rivers. Trout, sometimes even big trout, can be found in all of these waters at the right time. Fall River is a classic spring creek with abundant hatches in its upper reaches. The famous Hex hatch can be prolific out the back door of this property.
The property’s large dock right on the Fall River allows for easy access to the river and spring system. Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park is a gorgeous, 6,000 acre area with hiking trails and a few small campgrounds, only accessible by boat.
Waterfowl hunting in the Fall River Valley can be extraordinary! Because it is an important breeding and staging area for waterfowl in the Pacific Flyway, the area also offers some great duck hunting.
