Hello, I was curious about what type of fishing is allowed at Putah Creek. I read what it said on the Putah creek website about barbless and catch and release but wasn't sure if you could use any rod or does it have to be a Fly rod. I have a friend who is learning how to fly fish but has other rods with which she i...

Does anyone know a better location to catch crayfish more easily? Thanks! Has anyone tried the Lake Berryessa b...

Hi all, Now that the flows are starting to go down for Fall (currently at 204cfs), I wanted to share my thoughts on fishing Putah and discussions on the board. I think there is a balance that we should strike regarding discussing fishing success on the Putah and ensuring that we aren't contributing to...

I use instagram and follow a local guide. He moves from the lower Yuba to Putah and back. I've noticed that he is posting constant images of guys with large bows almost daily. If the river were 30 miles long and had low pressure, that would be one thing but this place is going to crush under pressure. T...

Anyone been up there lately, or planning a trip? I'm wondering if smoke is still choaking the valleys of the Trinity a...
