Diversity of Putah.
(Preview)
Putah has many different species of fish other than the beloved rainbow trout. I'm interested to know how many of you guys are mainly trout anglers, or if you use your fly rod for other species? I'd prefer trout any day for their beauty and fight, but I've been using my fly rod for every thing else too.

New to Fly Fishing. Help?
(Preview)
This time of year...& for the next month what would be good to use in the Putah Creek, such as in flys? I always have great catch rate using a #12 hook w/ salmon egg. What does it mean by patterns? Is it the way the fly is tied or is there a certain casting pattern from fly to water?
