I went out yesterday with two buddies. We fished from 9 am to dark. Between the 3 of us there were 5 hook ups and only 1 to hand. We didn't get any action at all until 5 pm. We parked at the hatchery and walked down to the island. There were already 7 guys at the top of the chute next to the island so we went back ups...
Well....?? I took a lot of pictures...?? ate my roastbeef sandwich...? and thats just about it!!! Water still looked like yoohoo at the island.? Didnt wanna move upstream, but just sitting and listening to the creek relaxed me a bit.

Like everyone else who's been putting up with the weather, I've been itching to get out.? After pouring over the weather reports, it looked like the snow level was going to be about 3500' for Thursday nights' storm.? I though "what the hell", the North Fork of the Middle Fork of the American...
Fished the AR yesterday afternoon and this morning. Ended up going 2 for 5 combined for days. Yesterday I only hooked two and today I hooked three. Didn't arrive at the river till 3 in the afternoon on Wednesday and didn't start fishing till about 330 because I was talking to a guy using a float rod and I wa...
Me and my pop are gonna head up to the river this weekend. We've never fished it so we were woundering what kinds of flies to use and if there are any good spots, or if it is even fishable now?
thanks.

Well no chrome today for me. Hit the american with a few grabs but that was it. Saw a lot of fish I was fishing a spot at dusk and this guy walks down about 20 feet from me makes one cast and bingo fish on. It was?probably a 10 pound fish. Go figure ?He was using roe. Just to let you know the wardens are out When I le...

Well, had another fun day on the American.? This time I had the pleasure of fishing with two good guys Brian and Eric (Lilwhippersnapper).? We hit the river before dawn only to find that the spot we were supposedly going to "hog all day" already had some hardcore steelie hunters fishing it....
Hello All, ??? Back again from my seasonal job and even more addicted to flyfishing. I've been looking for some nymphs (zebra midges, RS2) that i can't find here in Vacaville. Any suggestions of what flyshop i should go? any help would be great. thanks.

Well, I was hoping to fish the San Lorenzo for some steelies, but the local shop said it's raging and muddy. He did tell me that Scotts Creek clears up really fast and is probably fishable. So that's where I'm going tomorrow. Anyone ever fish that creek?
