I haved fished Putah for many, many years. Having experienced what an outstanding fishery Putah was in the past, I am saddened to see what it has become over the past few years. I realize that there are several members of this forum who can and have told the same story. There are many theories as to w...
As some might know I am on the market for a new pair of boots. I have been looking around but found the same pair of Simms boots (L2s) i am looking to replace on sale but they have the Aquastealth soles. I have used the Vibram Streamtread before but have never even heard of these does anyone have advice or exp...
Good Morning everyone. I am off to the slopes today, but wishing I was fishing!! Is anyone out there familiar with Albright? I would like to add to my expanding collection of rods and reels, but I object to paying the high prices demanded by the premium brands. Take care and thanks for the input, DJ
I just want everyone to know that you can support the game wardens. They are doing their best on a limited budget. If everyone gives five bucks it will make a difference!!! If you watch Wild Justice you will see that these people really care about the wildlife in CA. Show your support!!! http://www...
Hello board its been a long time since my last post, but what i saw at the creek this past Sunday was quite disturbing. As I was heading to a spot that I usually start my day at I noticied something large and red submerged of the bank. As I got closer to the waters edge passing empty KFC bags an empty mason jar...
Ducks are laying an egg!! I saw a fish caught and kept today on Putah. The offender was some type of raptor. Not sure what it was. White and brown fairly large. Not a Red Tail, not a Bald eagle. Something in between. A raptor has to eat... Any bird people out there?
Try to rap your brains around this one...If your local safeway closed, you would drive to the next closes store to buy your food...You would not starve and die. Though I'm starting to thing a few of you are that dumb....If one section of the creek gets filled in with silt and the food source get choked out...
I am primarily a kayak fish, but I also fly fish Putah. On occassion I like to paddle Lake Solano if not only to get outside and L.S. is close. I have a fish finder on my yak and have been really surprised by how much of a wasteland L.S. has become in terms of fish. Obviously the stocking is what held up the p...
I have been pondering this question recently. Why choose to go to a creek, river or lake with rod and reel in hand? Why not just take a pair of hiking shoes and a camera or maybe a pair of binoculars to observe the wildlife? Im currently formulating my own response but I would enjoy hearing others thought...

Two buddies and I fished the Lower Stan just below Goodwin Dam on Friday, 1/7/2011. Fishing pressure was relatively light; we saw only five other guys all day. Flows over the spillway were about 200 cfs. It was cold and overcast all day. Fishing was typical for this time of year on the Lower Stan, wi...

As well all know its that time of year for steelhead. Dont know about you but I have been itching for awhile, and getting a semi fix on the Feather, due to High Water on the Yuba and the American. With the Yuba at 19k on 12/20 and then 12k on 12/30 the Yuba has been blow out. But with a recent letup in the rain, I...
Im over the "redds" thread because its going no where and is completely unproductive at this point...and I know others are over it too. I wanted to start a new thread that focuses on ideas of how to approach and educate other fishermen while promoting the sport of fly fishing. Also feel free...

I talked to DFG today to see what was going on across from the campground at Access 1. I have been seeing DFG people at the Audubon Gate. Apparently DFG and Audubon sponsored a pig hunt on the Audubon property. Four pigs were taken all around 200 pounds. Now that is a Putah Pig!!! I may have to get a hun...
