No New Posts fishing a sink tip??? (Preview)
Decided to pickup a sink tip line today and was wondering if theres anything i should expect as i have never tried this before, i plan on swinging some larger flies such as wooly buggers and maybe some steelhead flies. I do find that when i am fishing deep with shot on a floating line i tend to have some trou...

Lots of Hooded and Common Mer...

It was just a awso...

No New Posts report and fishing the redds (Preview)
I fished on Wednesday in the bridge area and had a wonderful time.  It was heavy overcast and lots of bugs were out, and the fish were eating.  I used a caddis pattern as an indicator with a small nymph (brassie, midge, bwo, etc.) about 18" under it with a tiny split, and fished faster water.&n...

Was considering fishing Putah on Monday but wasn't sure how the rain would impact fishing.  So far the flows haven't changed much.  Would be very interested in opinions of those with more experience fishing the creek after storms such as this.  Appreciate any comments.

Thanks for the advice on fishing Putah Creek.  We did a lot of exploring and found some pretty good water.  My buddy and I fished areas 1, 2 and 3 yesterday for about six hours.  We caught three on red WD-40s and zebra midges (size 18).  Two were 12-inchers and one was a nice 19-inch...

     I had a pretty good day at the creek this morning, above access #2. Only fished for about 3 hours but I landed 3, and lost 2. I was happy that I finally found a spot where I didn't see any redds. So I knew i was in for some good fishing. Here is a pic of the 17 " bow I caught right when I was lea...

Took the canoe out today today with the roommate...puttered around the top of solano for a net total of one strike.  Then moved up below the dam.  Saw some fisherman fishing above the resort there, seemed to be doing ok when we went by.  When we made it up to the pond the move was worth it....

What is your favorite combination when using a dropper.  I like to use a  red X-Tend Abody Midge on top with a hare's ear as the dropper.  I think the red attracts the fish.  I get most of my fish on the dropper.  Good Fishing to all.

I thought this may be interesting topic. The question is what 5 dryflys and what 5 wets would you use if those were the only 10 you could use in putah creek? Any of you guys ever stop and pickup some fly's at the winter's store? I got a few red midges last weekend and everyone single one of them startin...

I fished behind the Resort for two days this weekend and caught nothing!  I got some good hits from some smaller trout using Blue Dunns.  I actually saw a small greyish fly buzz across the water and get taken down by a small trout.  My fly looks much like the real fly.  They were jum...

No New Posts What to look for? (Preview)
Im a novice when it comes to knowing when and where fish spawn and that seems to be a concern on this page for this time of year. So a few questions are what kind of water and or bedding on the bottom does this occure (also areas on the creek to avoid). Also Ive caught some rainbows that are a real bright...

Hit the creek with my brother from 8am to 12am. only managed 1 fish at about 10inches. saw alot of what looked like pre-spawn behavior so we stayed away from that area. the creeks lookin really pretty now, it was great to finally get out again. Good luck everybody, Clayton

Went out today from 8-430. Started out down by access 3, didn't have any luck. Moved up below th resort just above the fast water. There were 10 to 12 fish in the 20+ range just setting in the riffle. I tried everything I had, dries, nymphs. They look, but no takers. They would occassionally hit on t...

Fished today hooked and landed a rainbow 24inches long. It was very skinny and did not fight at all I think it already spawned, it reminded me of a spawned out steelhead. Do the fish typically spawn now or is this one just early. edog

fished nearly 6 hours saturday and i will say putah kicked my butt, been doin pretty decent lately and only managed 2 12 inch wild bows yesterday, think i am having a little trouble adjusting to the winter flows, seems like most spots are just too shallow to hold fish, good example is the riffle ar...

No New Posts When do Rainbows Spawn? (Preview)
I was up at the Silver Fork yesterday, and while standing is a pool, noticed the largest rainbow I have seen in that river, about 18 in long.  It was only about 10 ft away and in less than a foot of water.  I thought perhaps it was spawning, but a friend, who is much more knowledgable about fish th...

No New Posts my flyline broke can I repair it? (Preview)
Went into my closet and found that my cat had chewed and snapped my flyline on both of my rods. I guess thats what I get for being lazy and not putting them away. They are both wf 6 floating lines and are are cut about 4 feet from where the leader attaches. Question is this repairable or do I need to but new...

Played hookie from house duties today and headed up to the creek arriving just after noon. Geared up and started fishing a section below the old caretakers trailer (seems there was a fire there and the trailer is gone now). I had a couple of grabs and landed 1 fish around 12" or so on a #18 red midge. I reali...

No New Posts Flows 11/04 (Preview)
I just checked the flows, and they appear to have jumped from 77 cfs to 590 cfs in a period of an hour.  A change like that can put a serious damper on the fishing.  If true, why would they change the flows so quickly?  The glory hole couldn't be spilling over yet.
