Had a blast with my father fishing the Lower Sac with Ryan Johnston. After teaching the old dog the new trick, we boated 26 nice rainbows which topped out at 19.5". We drifted the middle section. It was cold but dry. Most of the fish were taking orange egg patterns! Weird time of year for that bu...

Met up with Brian on the American this morning to test the spey rod for his up coming Alaska trip. This is a 11 weight, a little heavier than his 5 weight. He tied on a piece of red yarn an cast down and across and said he thought he felt a tug. Next cast he got two tugs , third cast also got a tug. He then tied on an a...

Fished the Yuba for a couple hours down below diguere on Friday, only one fish, but I didn't really fish that hard either (my brother was with me who didn't have waiders so I couldn't really get to fish all my favorite spots). Drove up below parks bar mid afternoon to see if any hatches were going on, none...

Drove up to the Russian yesterday. The River was a little over 900cfs and very fishable. Stopped at Dry Creek. There was a report of one fish in the morning. I worked it over for about two hours. Nothing. The river had blown out the downstream area where I usually cross. Unable to even attempt a cr...

Hi Folks, a happy new year to everybody! Managed to get home to Ireland for Christmas for the first time in nearly two years. Unfortunately the temperature only rose above freezing a few times on the entire trip. With trout and salmon being off limits for the spawn between October and March the only opt...

I made a Lower Yuba run with Alastair on the 20th. I was amazed how much the river had cleared up in a week. Visibility was around 5 feet. As you can see on the flow reports, it is still running very high. Wade access is very much reduced, but like anywhere, you observe and define the feeding lanes, seam...

There was pehaps a 8-10 fly fisherman there and another dozen gear fisherman (I'm not sure if that a big crowd for the american or not). I talked to a few people (Fly f...

Two buddies and I fished the Lower Stan just below Goodwin Dam on Friday, 1/7/2011. Fishing pressure was relatively light; we saw only five other guys all day. Flows over the spillway were about 200 cfs. It was cold and overcast all day. Fishing was typical for this time of year on the Lower Stan, wi...

Fished the low flow section of the Feather today . Fishing was slow, one half pounder. Talked to six others , no one had any hookups.

As well all know its that time of year for steelhead. Dont know about you but I have been itching for awhile, and getting a semi fix on the Feather, due to High Water on the Yuba and the American. With the Yuba at 19k on 12/20 and then 12k on 12/30 the Yuba has been blow out. But with a recent letup in the rain, I...

So I'm pretty bored, so I thought I'd put up this pic. I played golf 2 weeks ago right next to piece of water. Your only hint is that it is in NorCal. Edit: Crap, it came out pretty small so put it up on your BIG monitor. -- Edited by Ty on Monday 20th of December 2010 04:07:44 PM

As we all know the Sac Valley Rivers have really been on fire for trout and steelhead. And I, as well as a few others have been hitting them pretty hard. I decided that I wanted to get away from the crowds, cars, noises and smog and hit up some high sierra streams before the snow comes in and blocks my cha...

After several delays, me and Steve finally got a trip on Sat. I had this spot on my list of places to fish as I had driven by the turnoff a number of times but always put it off. The rain made for a good day of fishing drys. Didn't see any rock climbers. See if you can find Steve in the last photo

Just a few hours to the south! The water is managable and the fish were hitting nymphs at the tops of pools all day. Around 6pm there was an impressive BWO Hatch. I got the fish in the pic just shy of the market at El Portal.
