Stumbled on fresh mountain lion deer kill at access five today. I know these warnings pop up on this forum periodically, so here's this season's: be careful. They are out there. Scared the absolute crap out of me to see fresh deer head just sitting in brush. That's two big cats in one month — had a bobcat j...
Hi Everyone,I just want to introduce my self on this forum. Just went fly fishing for the first time at Putah Creek today and have a blast (even thought I didn't even get a bit). If anyone lives close to Vacaville, CA and ever wants someone to come fishing with them please let me know, I would love to meet so...
Hey guys new to the Putah, Went out last Saturday Fished about 100 yds above the 128 bridge. Hooked into 1 fish, on a #24 Buckskin. I had tried numerous flies, mainly all variations of midges, however coming off the full moon and the changing water flow (River was very Murky). Is this typical for this...

Gear , 2. dry fly presentation 3.Nimphing . Reading Water ways Where do fish like to hang out . This is just an intro class so you will n...
Ive been fishing putah solidly for the last few years and iv pulled out monster rainbows no problem. iv caught trout from very small up to 8lbs and lost a few lunkers. Yet, ive still not had the pleasant oppertunity of landing a brown. I have a close family friend that has landed the biggest set of browns i...
I,m back. It has been a while since I've been a participant on the forum, seems fairly tame compared to years past. Between prospecting (Gold), and my wifes illness, not much time to fish.Hope to improve on that this year. I now have a web site for my business, JWH Construction, www.jwhstairrails.b...
I am putting on a casting / fly fishing clinic for the campers at "Canyon Creeh Resort" and could use some help with casting instructions and a few rods or just some help . Whenever I fish near the bridge inevitably someone from the resort comes over and watches me fish . So I contacted the res...
It's been a while since I have posted anything, but I hope the knuckleheads who I met fishing last Friday on the Yuba read this. So I am fishing my favorite run on the Yuba first thing last Friday morning, looking forward to some egg bite magic. And sure enough, I have a few strikes; land some, lose some...
A buddy of mine and I were fishing the lower Yuba today, North side of the river below the highway 20 bridge. We walked down the main trail and walked along the bank and fished that side. After about ten minutes, we heard a nearby explosion. I was further downstream, thought it was a shotgun going off. Aft...
Was on the LT this weekend and came across this fish hugging the bank. We were surprised it didn't spook off. We walked right up to it and saw it was in really bad shape. Was able to dip my net in and get it without any reaction. It has sores all over and looked like rotting flesh. Saw a few others swimming arou...
Our good old frien Alastair Rimmer ( African Angler) is in town visiting and we headed up to the Yuba yesterday for a day trip. The weather was perfect I must say, and that, besides the scenery, was the highlight for the day on the river. I have never seen the Yuba so damn clear. It is fishing like a sprin...
If you have not already checked out Ken Davis's facebook page you should. He has been posting some incredible photos and video of the fish spawning. https://www.facebook.com/creekmanken
12-1-2013 Osprey on the wing. Pillows of white in blue. Northern Migration calls. Clutched talons, scales spectrum reflecting. Dinner, enroute to wintering grounds. 12-20-2013 Konkow, Maidu, Nisenan and Miwok their foot steps followed. Upriver. Stand and cast, in the flow, sudden chil...
I'm thinking about asking Santa for one. Seems to me it would work well in the close quarters of Putah and get your flies into some hard to reach spots.
Hi everyone! I write a blog called Gal Gone Fishin' and I'm doing some research for an article I'm working on. I would really appreciate it if you would take a quick survey to help me collect some data. The results are anonymous so please feel free to share an honest opinion and let me know what you think.

I went to discovery channels "How Its Made "and asked them to do a segment on Carbon Fiber Fly Rods , If some one else wants to do the same maybe it will help ? It would be cool to see `

Anyone out there chasin' steelhead? Any rivers where the action has been real hot or warmin' up? Thinking about getting out there sometime soon and trying to plan. I usually take a trip to the Trinity just after Thanksgiving and as of now, that is still the plan. - Jon "doing my raindance" V...
New Putah Creek Fishing Regulation signs and Spawning Area Warning signs were put up at the creek today by 14 PCT volunteers. This was a fantastic turnout that made the work so much easier, and allowed for more socializing during the work effort. Spawning signs were installed at the usual spawning...
Over the years I have had the opportunity to fish a lot of different setups. From fast action to slow and from graphite to glass. With the technology in fly rods these days you really can't go wrong. I am a firm believer in fish what you like and be happy with it. When it comes to Putah I was on the Winston...
Does anyone know if this rain has opened the mouth of the Russian and let a few steelhead in? I haven't tried for them since February and have the urge to go out and get frustrated. Nothing like a day on the river tossing flies for 5 or 6 hours. Good exercise if nothing else. I think I've lost my innate op...
