Went to the creek to make sure all the fish were still hungry..First thing I found was a friend in the parking area...headed down to the water and found 14 fish that enjoyed the artificial buffet I prepared for them...Then cruised over to #5 and found a few more hungry takers...I had one more spot I wante...
Anyone with fishing suggestions for Lakes... I am a graduate student and I got to be honest I cannot afford to drive to Putah... I read damn near 1000 pages a week... anyone have a suggestion for a lake I might be able to wet some line in?? I am going crazy
well thought it wasn gonna be to bad, check the weather at 5 am, on tv and on the net, well i guess carson will have to wait until next thursday, so went to nimbus to floss for some salmon, and the rain kept coming, so figured i come home and play some video games, hahahaha
I'm thinking of heading out Sunday morning, I'd be on the creek by 8:00 or so. I'm in a blue dodge quab cab and wear a straw cowboy fishing hat. If you see me come say hello. I'll probably start out at #5

Hi guys, it looks like it might rain on saturday, do you think that will hurt the fishing at all. I never fished a river or stream while it was raining, only a lake, and it usually doesn't hurt the fishing too bad, but I'm talking Amador here...lol. Also, I'm gonna get an early start at Putah on saturday, li...
I have noticed that the flows have been trending downward.? If memory serves me it is still a little early for them to really start cutting the flows for the winter. However my memory does not "serve me" as well as it used to. So my question is this.? Are we at the beginning of the downward trend...

http://weather.yahoo.com/forecast/USCA0967_f.html it might be a crazy day, but as far as opinions go, would it still be worth it for me to go up there and fish, being that it may be in the mid 50s few showers, and possible snow in the am times, and if it will be any advise as far as fishing, should i go?dee...

Went to the creek for a couple days and decided to explore a bit since the flows are dropping.? Found a way across to the other side of access 3 and fished the pocket water upstream.? This turned out to be much more difficult then I planned.? Every time I saw a spot that looked promising I'd get close and rea...

I've been thinking about fishing at Putah Creek tomorrow, but my ski watch tells the atmospheric pressure has dropped since last week from 1008 mb to 999 mb.

I have only been flyfishing for a little less then 2 years now and have always had trouble casting with shot on. I have read some posts that mention using a shorter leader when using weight, does this indeed help ? I also was curious what action rod casts weight better, i ussually use a medium action 8 foot...
I looked at the current flows for this weekend and it looks like it is going to be around 350. What is good for fishing? Anything under 400? Is a flow like 40 too slow? What's ideal?If anyone knows more on flows, let me know. ? -- Edited by bonefish1 at 16:31, 2007-09-12
