I live near the Calaveras and fish it every once in while. It can be great fishing. I went once in late feb and caught a 16 incher on a scud pattern. That was my only fish for the three hours I was there. The best fishing is about a mile or so below the dam. For access in that portion of the river, research Calaveras County assessor maps along the river and you will find a few locations that the county has set aside for sportsmans access. The easments indicate where pedestrians have a right to access. As far as what they bite on. I have found that your normal patterns such as the hares ear, pheasant tail, and prince don't work as well as patterns like the san juan worm, scuds, and whooly buggers.
