After reading someone's report and all the negative responses about keeping quiet about the big fish being caught, I decided to fish Putah for the first time in a couple years... It is true, positive reports will bring more people to fish the creek just like myself... The creek really has seemed to tak...

PCT is interested in finfing out if you have seen active spawners on the redds at the usual places. Much of the best areas appear to be weed choked and the one fish I saw today was finning up a cloud of silt every time she made a pass over the gravel-not a good sign. This is an informal follow up to last years SC...

I am into fly fishing for only a couple of years now, I've done quite a bit of fishing on the east coast. While reading through the posts about staying away from the redds several members mentioned that there are plenty of other places to fish around here. I would love to hear about them, I know of Putah and...

as a few of you know, I'm a very beginning fly fisherman with a $20 4weight fly rod, I couldnt even tell you the name of it. Well I broke it fishing for striper again (about 2-3 pounds didnt weigh it but was 22 inches), and it isnt worth fixing. So that brings me to my questions. 1. What weight fly rod should I g...

Just wanted to hear peoples predictions on how they think putah will be fishing in the coming years since we have the new regs? Will we see a dramatic improvement in the fishing or is it going to be a slow process? Will there be more or less fisherman fishing putah now? Will putah ever be planted again?...

Clayton · Clayton

Hi everyone stopped at that little store right next to the lake that's right at the beginning of the creek and seen that they have some gear they are caring like some nice net's and backpacks that go in the front don't know what you call them but the net's were like $24.00 and the backpacks were about the sa...

So I hooked up a real fighter Friday. As soon as I set the hook I could see it's silver flashes as it gave me some nasty head shakes. I was surprised to see the color of this guy once I got it closer. It went 16"-17" and was a beautiful silver and green with a big pink stripe. I'm assuming that...

Since the winter spawn is on, I am suggesting that people just write in how the fishing trip was. Many of the regulars have figured this out. It will be somewhat informative, but will not give out locations, and will not have photos of locations. If any photos are posted they should just be a close up o...

I'm new to the board and read the threads about baitfishing out of season and posting signs with interest. The current regs have been in place for at least 30+years while the usage of the creek has increased a lot. I personally would like to see zero limit for the whole stretch from dam to dam year rou...

Just another reminder that Saturday, November 21st is another Putah Creek cleanup day . . . MArk your calendars!!!!!!! The creek looked cleaner than normal the the other day, so I'm guessing that actual necessary cleanup time will be less than the past. I propose that we get a good crew out there, f...

I fished from 1 to 2 miles below the bridge today from 8:30am to 1:00 pm. Did not land, hook, or see a fish all day. I fished the same areas a couple of weeks ago and had one fish on. It seems to me the fish population is way down from what it used to be a few years ago. I have 40 years FF'ing experience includi...

Heard on the radio the other day that some dude pulled a 5lb Brown out of Lake Solano. Too bad it's not swimming there anymore... I know that there used to be a decent Brown Trout fishery at Putah.

I know this is not the for sale section but I never get any action there... I have a box of approximately 90 hand tied flies for sale (including the box). I went through all my flies and these are extras I'm willing to sell. You get the whole thing for $40 shipped, that's about .40¢ a fly....can't beat that....
