Hi all, I'm going out this afternoon, and have yet to decide where? I have been going to turnout #5 I guess you call it, and want to try a new one this afternoon, but I am not familiar with the others. With good wading opportunities. Any info would be great. Mayb...

I spent about 6 hours yesterday above the bridge and below the dam. It was one of those Putah Days with fish jumping out of the water while chasing something and with big fish below chasing something. The something wasn't what I offered from standard little Putah Creek flies to terrestials to pupa...

Made it to the water around 2:30 this afternoon. Initially tried the big hole below the staircase. There were 2 cars parked upstream from the lower access and I was hoping to have the hole to myself. I crossed in the fast water below the big hole and found another flyfisherman already there. I'm und...

Had a great evening on the creek. 7 fish ranging from 11"- to a big fat 17" brown. Bead head nymphs and a 50/50 yogurt. I have just started back fly fishing after about a 10 year haitus.

I am very excited about the prospects at one of my dads favorite plac...

Well, it was such a nice day, I decided to go out again today. My fishing partner and I had a pretty good day, landing a couple of dozen fish between us. What made it interesting is that I landed fish on streamers, nymphs, and dries. Most of the fish were in the 13 to 14 inch range, but I di...

I appreciate the posts from KHB and Otter. They were very informative. I went out this morning rigged for both nymphs and streamers. I fished for a while with a Fox's poopah and red WD40 dropper and managed to hook one fish. I then switched to stripping a woolly bugger and the...

October is a great time to high stick for fish. Tonight I fished the upper bridge for the first time in at least 18 months. The crowds at the bridge have always kept me away, but I pulled in and there were only a couple of cars in the lot. I fished about fifty feet below the bridge for abou...

Did anyone possibly find a Gerber folding huniting knife in the parking area by the Upper Bridge, on the South side of the road? I was fishing there Thursday Sept. 29th, and must have dropped in on the ground by my car as I was loading in to leave in the dark. I've been fishing with this knife for a few ye...

I've heard numerous ways to clean my boots and waders so as to not infect other rivers with the NZ mud snails. But what is the best way? The easiest way? The most effective way? Thanks

Howdy all...My local fly guy told me the there is a new way of nymphing

He calls it the DARK SIDE

Rumor has it the folks are trying/using 30-40 feet of monofiliment at the end of the fly line in lue of a butt section/leader/tippet. Has anyone tried this method

My friend...

Sorry for the late report, but I hammered em' in the middle of August. Many fish up to 14" and one pushing 5lbs. The flows were too high so I stuck to the 128 bridge area. The three inlets below the bridge produced with pt's and micro mayflies. Any area with oxygenated wa...

I've fished Putah Creek many times, and usually it's too crowded for my tastes, but I rarely see anyone out on the lake. I'd like to get to know the fishing seasons on Lake Solano. I've heard that there are some real bruisers in there, and I'd like a shot at 'em. I have a pontoon boat and...

Hey everyone, I know this is a kind of a shot in the dark but I lost my trusty Leatherman tool today. If you find it and don't mind dropping me an e-mail..... there's a dozen fly's in it for you. It was lost around access 5...... I think. The Leatherman is orange and in a black sheath. Thanks for...
