I received a reply from Roger Bloom at the DFG today.? Our request for authorization to post signs on the creek?has been passed on to the right people.? Hopefully?we will receive a quick response.? At least we might have signs posted before the end of?this coming?trout season.?
It seems that all of us are seeing more and more bait fishermen on the creek before the season opens.? I ran into some last Thursday and JT and I did again on Friday.? I decided to call the CALTIP number at DFG today to see if they can do something about this problem.? Hopefully a warden will make a more regul...
Has anyone tried salmon yet ? Talked to a few dackhands on party boats and been checking reports and its lookin pretty bad, last year was horrible. I beleive this is a direct reflection of this states water and fisheries mismanagment. So I blame all he empty suites in sacramento for this. Wont be long be...
Got to the creek at 8 a.m today, fished #5, started at the "no rental boat beyond" sign. Pretty much went completely around the island twice, hitting every good looking spot, not spending alot of time in each spot, Only one fish hooked on a #16 pheasant tail, lost it, was maybe 15 inches. The w...

If we can get some people together it would be fun to float from access 5 down...

Hey guys, I was up at Putah this last weekend and the flows were pretty fast. Im somewhat new to flyfishing and was hoping for some advice on where would be a decent spot for a novice to easily fish on the creek w/o too much difficulty. Any help is appreciated.

Howdy, everyone ! I sure the creek ! No rainbows anywhere near me. I have managed to get out a few times to our stock ponds which are LLLLOOOAAADDDEEEDDD with monster bass. My biggest is 9 lbs. The fish are starting to spawn so I've stopped fishing them for a while. I'll send pics soon. BTW, the current sta...
My Buddy and i fished here a month ago right next to the dam in float tubes and cought a few raimbows, and a few?nice hogs, and a salmon suprisingly. It was only a pound or so. I didn't know they were in the creek. Heres a few pictures...
I fished the creek today with a friend.? I was hoping to get him into some nice fish.? He managed to hook one--a big, beefy rainbow--on a #16 olive caddis pupa.? It got around a rock and got off.? Those fish are true escape artists.? I?hooked two, landing one--a fat 17"er.??He took a #20 mayfly nymp...
I drove in through Napa today and was looking to see how close the glory hole was to screwing up the fishing.? To my surprise it dropped today.? The flows jumped as a result.? I did manage to land a fish today, but the fishing was terrible.? The fish were blown around and will probably be confused until the...

Haven't done this since I fish the boundary waters 2 yrs ago, and without stellar success at the time.?? I am debating between upper Putah and Cach...
Below is a URL for an article on fishing midge imitations, it was written for Montana waters but I found it applies very well to Putah, hopefully I'll have a chance to try a few new things this weekend though it looks like the flows will be driving a change in tactics.? Midges have been a bit of a mystery to m...

I had to get out to the creek again before I go back to school tomorrow. Putah kicked my butt today. Actually, the wind kicked my butt today. The wind was howling straight downstream the whole time I was there. To even think about getting a drag-free drift I had to nymph downstream. There were some midges...
