Labor Day fun
(Preview)
I took my kayak for a paddle along access #1 today. One little guy liked my #20 black midge... A bit of success goes a long way... It's good to see young of the year in the water. And yes, I filled out the survey! BTW will answering -2 on the surveys get us more resources? Just wondering.

Fishing rpt for Thurs afternoon

This was my first time fishing in the summer at Putah. All the usual hot spots were under water so much of my time was spent hunting for fishable places. It was frustrating in general as many of the obvious "fishy" runs were inaccessable. I hooked 5 and landed 1 small fish. Had another 3 gra...

Hi all, well after almost 7 years of not fishing Putah, ( too busy raising kids) I'm coming back. I cut my teeth on Putah in 1996, it took me years to figure it out. I hope it hasn't changed much, still little bugs (18 and 20) right? I've been watching the flows this week. I can't remember when I can start...

kayaks spotted July 20, 2011
(Preview)
If you are looking for four Lagoon inflatable kayaks, they are scattered along about a mile of the creek, starting about a mile below the bridge. Two are in the pool below a rapid, one with a life vest in it. Paddles are also scattered below this point-only saw two of those....Hope this helps somehow......

Well it has not been as good as some other years, but the fish are still out there. The golden brown poopah and the red brassie seem to always bring in a few fish. There is some guy out there that swears by that new fly the "two bit hooker". Tons of small black midges as well.
