Looking for some size 9 womans wading boots for my wife who is intersted in trying out Fly Fishing. I have no idea if she will ever use them again, so the cheaper the better! :)
Is it just me or does it seem like the snails are dissapearing? I remember seeing them covering every rock in the creek. Now I haven't been seeing any. Can these things die out on their own?
I never knew his name or age or where he even came from , How long he had rested there along the creek lying there by himself he was always there to say hi when I arrived and there when I looked over my shoulder right before I walked up that last hill right before you get to the parking lot at access # 5 , no f...
Four of us set up this 3 day, 3 river fishing bonanza back in March . . . and it was finally here. We began by drifting the Lower Sac on Friday. If you want to get into good numbers of BIG Rainbows, now is the time to get up there. We went out with Ryan Johnston and enjoyed a day of big, healthy fish. It got...
This week PCT assisted Roger Bloom's crew in surveying the creek for young of the year and safe harbor habitat for small fish. Several PCT members volunteered, including Dave M, Brian C, Bernie W, Jordan R, Greg B, Jacob B, Chris Y, Michael F, Richard L, and myself. A great time was had by all and target...
As I wrapped up my last session out at the creek for the next few months. I was crossing back across the creek and grabbed on to a branch and caught a handful of flies in my hand! Ouch, not to mention they still hand the brabs on them... Shame on you whoever didn't pinch down the barbs... It was not fun to pull a...
Hi everyone. I new to the creek and your forum and wanted to say hello. I have had good luck the few times I've been up to the creek, and I would like to get out as much as possible in the next couple weeks before the fish (and I) start to get busy. On that note, I have a question about brown trout. Since dayl...
Got back about two weeks ago but have only now had the time to sort through the photographs and post some buff about the backpacking trip. We started at the bishop access to the southern sierras at south lake, headed over Bishop pass, John Muir pass, wandered down through evolution valley and left via p...
Hey everyone: the Cleanup was canceled by FFD due to rain in the forecast for Saturday. However, it will go on without the food and drink and be sponsored by our group. So plan to come out in your rain gear and go fishing afterward-the creek is fishing real well. We can also do a quick survey for redds/spaw...
I've been going to the Putah roughly once a week for a month now. Skunked x4. I'm a bit discouraged. I'm trying #18 dark bead head nymphs behind a leading fly of various configurations - small san juan worm, wooly worms. Mostly I've been dead drifting with an indicator. I'm using 4 or 5x 9' leaders on...

Went out on Sunday morning and found some small fish. Not a bad way to spend your Sunday morning. Steve: an email is on the way with the pix and locations.
I've heard from people in the past on here and on Kienes that tying your own flys does not save you money. I'm kinda confused, cuz at an average of 2 bucks a fly it costs me at least 20 bucks for 10 flys. That's if I don't buy bead headed flys. Those cost 2.35. So I'm looking at 20-30 bucks for 10 flies. I can tie 3...
Probably not what you were expecting, but I thought I'd mix it up a bit before the shananigans start up again. Caught these feisty little bass in Davis after work yesterday.
I must admit that I have been disappointed with the consistency of the sharpness of Tiemco hooks, particularly the 2x heavy hooks (e.g. 3769, 2457, 3761). The smaller sizes of theses hooks are more consistently sharp (but not all of them), but the larger sizes seem to be much more inconsistent. Ear...

Hi there forum members: Fishing is picking up, if you don't mind small fish. Reports are that multiple hook ups are the rule, although many of the fish are going airborne on the set. Rumor has it that Shon is hogging his hole again-another good sign that fishing is getting better. Flows should be coming...
Partly world Series, partly rushing and mostly just boneheaded stupid I lost my Sage rod and Ross reel while at putah saturday 10/30 evening. If anybody comes across it or someone talking of finding a rod would dearly love to have it back. It was a gift from a friend.
Does anyone have breathable chest highs they are willing to sell (hopefully cheap)? I would be willing to patch small leaks. I prefer stockingfeet. Size Med or Large. If bootfeet, size 10. Thanks! Dan
So for years my dad and I used to fish the Pit River in the summer months. But that was when we lived closer. After moving to the Davis area years ago we took up trolling Lake Berryessa and spinner rods were not any good on the Putah. He's been fly fishing mostly the American and Yuba and Feather for the past...

I finally caught my first trout ever she wasnt giant but I thought pretty respectable I was juiced and the about 20 min later I caught ANOTHER ONE! again super juiced, a little bigger than the first but again nothing gian...
