Anyone have experience fishing the McCloud River in northern California?

I don't have a float boat but do have a float tube, although I'm not really comfortable floating a river in the tube.

Tom,

I don't know about the McCloud River but  I would like to tell  you that I was recently very saddened by the news of a young Canadian man, (35 years old) who drowned while fishing in the Clark Fork River.  I  saw the  two float tubes guys  floating  leisurely by our cabin  at 9:30 am and  word was he drowned at 11 am. I do not know the  details but  word is that he was getting out of the river and fell on the rocks and hit his head.  His tube flipped and he drowned fastened in by the safety strap. So  for you or anyone going out in a river in a float tube, please be careful. Terry has a float tube in storage.
Betty
