Hi Guys, In recent years I have been getting into Freediving and Spearing fishing more than flyfishing. My main fresh water fish of choices is the squawfish. ?Does anyone know if it is legal to spearfish in the creek? I know that the laws are very strict when it come to freshwater spearfishing. Thanks,...
Well, I read Bono's post and thought I'd go out this evening (Sunday) and see what I could dredge up. Aside from a few fish rising spordically in the lake near the bridge at dusk, I didn't see a trout. I did, however, see three large Pike Minnows (that's what I believe them to be - Greg or someone else - do you...
Three of us made a run to the East Walker last Friday and Saturday, then hit the Yuba on the way home on Sunday.? I had never fished the East Walker before.? We fished the Nevada side at Rasaschi Ranch.? It reminded me of a desert version of Putah.? It was pretty small water, with tons of brush around the ban...
Guys, my daughter is in the hospital so there will be a slight delay in getting the sets out. Since I don't have them all yet any way it might end up that there isn't a delay. Packrat

In 2003, there were about 70 salmon spotted in Putah below the diversion dam. There have been relatively few since then. They have closed or will likely close both commercial and sport salmon seasons this year all over because of poor returns. Since there was talk of a possible salmon sighting in Put...
I would have to say that i have never in all the 30 years of fishing Putah experienced such sh---y or should i say crappie fishing!I'm happy these last few days to even get a grab!I'm not catching or even seeing the small 5 to 8" fish that are normally so pleantyful this time of year,this really worri...
Ken Davis, stream biologist, has reported the presence of fingerling trout in Cold Creek.? These fish will he come trapped and die when the creek dries up later.? If you have a fine mesh net and are there, you might want to try a different kind of trout fishing to help the population grow.? It is particul...

Fished the Yuba with Captain and Otter on Sunday. There was the usual PMD hatch around noon with intermittent March Browns and then a light Caddis hatch in the evening with another mayfly that I could not ID. The unknown mayfly was about #16-18, rusty brown with a creamed colored body. Anybody have any...

It's running at around 90 cfs right now, and it's supposed to be cold during the week but warming up for the weekend.? Reports seem k...
I have not been on the creek since Dec/Jan.? With flows at 400, is it worth the effort? It's always been <100 when I've? been there and I'm concerned about access and taking a dunk with one mistep. Thanks, Eric
as i grew up in the YC i decided to make a trip up to see the family and well....hit up the yuba of course.? What can i say i have been addicted to that river since i was a kid (for those of you who just started fishing it, you should have seen it 10 years ago, amazing).? I used to fish the hallwood area but? since t...

Just enjoy being out there on the water with a fly rod in hand. Anyone ever need someone to fish with let me know dont have too many friends to flyfish with. Hope to meet yo...
It seems like most people on here have an obsession with the elusive brown trout of Putah Creek. I think I may have caught something even more rare last week. Hooked it on a 4wt, put up a great fight. This was caught on Putah Creek...just maybe not on the upper section.
Hello Everyone, I Joined a day or so ago, and thought I would use my first post to say hello!

Has anyone tried fishing Lake Anza in Tilden Park in Berkeley?? Signs seems to say you can fish it, but I was wondering if anyone has, or has heard of people fishing it.
