Hey, I was hoping to get a little more knowledge on the egg bite and some hopper info. I have'nt actually fished either one yet, and I'm starting to build both fly reserves. I have been looking at past posts as well as trying to gain other info. Can anyone help answer a few questions to help get me started?...
Went out today as a spare of the moment outing, loaded with my 5 weight and 3 popper/D-diver flies I got there around 9 oclock, the tide was high and heading out so I figured that I would have about 3 hours fishing at best. I ended up catching these 3 having one more ON and having 3 more blowups on a white poppe...

Hey all! I'm heading back to the yuba next week. I was wondering where it's safe to cross above the bridge considering the current flows. Haven't done it yet to be honest. Just don't want to go swimming. Thx Brett

Well looks like the gf wants to take me somewhere special for my bday. Its sometime away, Sept 18th, but figured I would ask around and get some ideas first. I was thinking either a guided float trip somewhere that I havent fished or go camping for a good week up in Yosemite or Trinity or something like t...
Hey Gang: Been a while since I fished the creek (can't remember the last time) - but it's so nice to see our efforts coming to fruition with all the signage and new regs postings. Given the overgrown state of the trails and lack of garbage at access 5, my emperical observation is that there is a bit less p...
Just a reminder for Ryan's fundraiser for kids at Sonoma's Leland Ranch, this should be a really nice event and a chance to raise a few $$ for these kids.Myself my wife and a handfull of friends are going and we may even do a little olive oil/ wine tasting on the way! By the way fished the creek yesterday wit...
Fished today for about 4 hrs, no takes, didnt see any fish, whats happened to this creek I used to average between 4 and 10 on an outing now I cant even get a grab. I think Im done with Putah for a while, Ive said this my last 2 outings but this was the last straw. The clarity and flows were perfect!!!! edog...
So my kid just got his drivers license. I told him if he kept up his grades we would try and get him a used bucket to drive around. He kept up his end of the deal so we went to the fairgrounds and found this sweet old woody. First thing he wanted to do was go fishing. I told him you don't have to ask me twice and...
Yesterday were two firsts: 1) I saw what looked like a Warden's vehicle parked at Access 3 and 2) I had my first opportunity to tell a fisherman that using bait and barbed hooks were illegal on PC, also at Access 3. Apparently the Warden left before the fisherman arrived. When I got home, I called Cal-Tip...
Just back from three days of fantastic camping. Stayed at Sycamore Ranch on Highway 20(sweet spot, just bought by the county)4 miles downstream of the bridge. Happened to meet a guy who was a guide up north who invited me to accompany him and his girlfriend in the drift boat. My karma must have been maxe...
I fished the Feather River for the first time on Monday 4/26. Floated the river with Ryan Johnson. I was into fish the entire day, I hooked up 21 fish and sadly only landed 9. These steelhead are really aggressive and strong. All of the fish landed were wild fish except for 2 that were Hatchery fish....
So had 2 close friends that wanted me to take them out on a river or two, so to the LT and Big T we went. But ofcourse I couldnt pass up fishing them as well, due to tying up a new streamer that I needed to try out. So Paul aka djwatts, myself and my good friend Chip set out on a mission. Got to the spot at 8am and at o...
I'm looking to do another run at Putah where we can mix some fishing with walking the river and informing all of the new regs. I have business sized cards to hand out with the new regs. I think I'll buy some spinners that we can hand out to people who are bait fishing as well. We'll just need to pinch the...
I will be in the area all week and have never fished out this way before. A few people suggested this creek...How has it been lately? Any advice for a first timer? I will be in Napa and dont have much interest in the wine thing.. thanks ahead for any help.
May sound like a silly question, but I've only fished it once. What would some of the more experienced Putah veterans call the perfect rod (weight and length)? I'm going tomorrow. Should I bring the 4, 5 or 6? They are all 9ft or better. Any more info helps. Thanks.
Looks like I'll be spending much more time up in Groveland in the future, I've never fished any forks of the Tuolumne, has anyone spent any time up that way? How are the areas around Lumsden Bridge or Wards Ferry, meaning the usual routine of parking and hiking away from the heavily accessed areas?
Fished with some buddies this past weekend up to Hat Creek. Less people than the opener...where people will combat fish with you. I found action with the following bugs: beadhead PT's, Hogan S&M's, goldrib hare's ears, and even sucker pattern. Dries have been Stimulator, Adams, Elk Hair Cadd...
http://www.dealsonthefly.com/ These guys are offerring Wm Joseph Drynamic waders in my size for about 150 bucks. I have no experience with their products aside from looking at some of their packs, which look at least as nice as Fish Pond. Do any of you guys have experience with their waders?? Thank...
Seen no fish and no takes. Seen a couple of people walking to the water that had bait poles, asked them if they new about the new changes and they said no, so i told them about it and they left.
im looking at google earth and im seeing what looks to be ALOT of fishable water up at the east side of auburn off hwy 49 and old foothill road...does any1 know how the fishing is there? or around that area? if so please let me know...im fiending to find a new semi close place to fish and i am REALLY fiending t...
Well I've posted before about this, but I continue to false hook fish. It always happens with the bigger fish I hook into. It's obviously due to a late hookset. My question is: Is it possible that I have too much leader below my indicator for the water depth I'm working in?
