This little lake gives Marysville some character. Its near the downtown area and its pleasant on…read morethe eyes. This isn't a destination by any means but if your in the area its worth going ten minutes out of the way to see. Things looked to be in OK condition. It wasn't manicured like a Japanese tea garden but it didn't have trash everywhere either. It's perfect for taking your dog for a walk - and functionally I think that is one of the most important things to be happy in a neighborhood. I like something green and something that isn't concrete. I also am a sucker for something that is obviously man made - and realize that some are high nosed to that sort of thing.

I have no words to describe Ellis Lake. It has changed drastically for the WORSE! No upkeep. It's…read morejust not what it used to be since 2004. It's no wonder why Marysville is losing its charm. Being at Ellis Lake now in 2023 will just give the feeling of sadness and beyond belief of what is happening. Ellis Lake definitely has potential, but not anymore with how it is being left unmaintained. First off. Pollution: Runoff from fertilizers, contaminated soil and other products has polluted the lake from human and bird feces, poop, pee, drugs, needles, etc... just floating around on the lake. YUCK!!!! Lots off overgrown vegetation beyond the eyes can see. Too many algae blooms. The lake is just beyond nasty and stinky! I highly advise just doing a drive by, but not going for a stroll around Ellis lake if you do want to visit. Either wise, this place isn't worth it to bring your out of state family/friends to visit Marysville. Rather divert going to Folsom Lake. It's that embarrassing for what the city of Marysville has gone to in a not so positive direction. Shame. Shame. Shame. SMH! Okayyyy... bye.

Great place to get local fishing info! Rhett was awesome. He told me where to fish, how to rig up…read moreand what to use. Sold me everything I needed. He showed me a great rig for fishing steelhead in the Feather River. He rigged up one setup for me, and I copied him and did another so I knew how to rig it. In a new town, I go to privately owned tackle shop to get info on where to fish, what to fish for, how to rig up. I drove 45 minutes each way to go to Yuba City Bait and Tackle. Was totally worth it. Rhett knew where the salmon had gotten up to on the Feather River. He told me where to put our float tubes in. I caught (and released) a huge steelhead, which pulled me around in the tube for a while.

I drove quite a way to talk to this guy because of his reviews. He spent so much time teaching me and helping me to rig my pole for the waters. I ended up catching a huge steelhead which pulled me around on my float tube. Incredibly fun and I owe it to this place. Sorry I don't remember his name. He's one of the owners And he's fantastic.

We were gifted a beautiful day on the river with multiple sightings of wildlife including fish jumping, ducklings, geese, and even a bald eagle! The best part was getting to see the kids do something, get scared, have a blast doing it, and then ask to come back for more intensity next time. I really appreciated the guides for their hospitality, humor, and kindness. However my main piece of feedback would be a friendly reminder that nature and outdoor recreational activities are a form of escape and respite from our every day life, so being more mindful of the topics of conversation brought up during the ride is very important to the atmosphere.

I have hunted with Scott 3 times now…read more The first time I told him to just tell me where to be and what time. We went goose hunting that day and it ended up being a day where we got into the triple digits of birds. Like no hunt I've ever been on and honestly I doubt I'll get to go on a hunt like that again. (I'll be calling Scott next season to try though) The second time was a duck hunt and we were done by 930 with a 4 man limit and 3 speckle bellies. It was actually a slow day and as we were pulling out you could see even more ducks coming in. We just watched them land in the decoys for a few minutes because as a hunter it's about more than just killing birds. You enjoy watching the birds work, the dog work, etc. The third time was great as well. He had a hunt all planned but we threw a curve ball at him and added an extra person last minute. It was happy to accommodate that and made the necessary adjustments for us. We were out until about 11 and ended up with over 20 birds. Geese and ducks. He makes it easy. You show up and kill birds. He takes care of all the details. Watching his dog work is awesome. That thing is a champion for sure. Also he has a really good guy working for him named Nate. Scott did good picking him, really relatable down to earth guy that knows what he is doing. Me and my hunting partners will 100% be setting up some hunts for next year soon. I highly recommend him if you're looking for a waterfowl hunt. No guide can ever promise you that you will kill limits of birds. Simply because no man can control nature. But Scott and Nate will do everything they can to make sure you do. You will experience something not a lot of people get to in the waterfowl hunting world.
