Hey Guys, I dont get it? DFG knows that they cant even come close to supporting the fishing pressure at Putah without stocking it on a regular basis.

Fished Putah for the first time today. Beautiful and fun place to fish. Didn't see anybody else out there. I have no idea where the good spots are so I spent a lot of the day exploring. Caught a lot of fish but most were under 6 inches. Here's a pic of my biggest one. Impressive huh? Well, I'm sure I'll b...

Richard, Alastair, and I fished access #5 after the Putah class today. It was good fun, and I snapped some pictures of some small fish these guys were catching. Maybe this photos will help PCT's efforts with the DFG. Also included: evidence of a beaver near access #3!

Saturday was hot, and the creek was looking good. We did manage to catch a few small fish on mayfly patterns, but nothing bigger than 12". I did see one guy hook into a large fish above the bridge, but it threw the hook. Apparently he had landed a fish over 20" earlier in the day. I tend to fish e...

Took my nephews out to the creek in Winters and found a beautiful little spot with clear water, gravel and sand bottom and riffles. I was totally surprised when they pulled out a couple trout, one on a spinner and another in deep slow water on a bass lure. An 11 incher and a 13 incher. Any of you guys ever...
