I've suddenly found myself with a free weekend so I'm planning on grabbing the fly rod and heading up to North Fork Stan. Has anyone been to Sand Flat Campground? Was considering camping there and fishing the stan and maybe hiking up Highland Creek a ways. Not sure if this creek is messed up by Spice...
Got breakfast served to me to start my day, then headed up to the Yuba to see what was shaking. Started at the 20 bridge, and moved upstream. Nymphed at first, landing a few nice fish, but atypically small (12-14 inches). Saw a fish rise, so I put on a caddis pattern. Proceeded to catch 20-30 9-14 inch f...
I'm sure it takes some effort to get things organized, but any speculation as to another member outing much like the Yuba outing on private waters? I'd be happy going there again, but I'm sure there are many other private waters around that could be possibilities. -Jon
Vince put his best dance steps to use on the North Fork Yuba yesterday. It is noton the newsracks yet. Fortunately, I was able to get this new step on film!!! Needless to say, he is a liitle more damp in the second picture.
Hey guys,I haven't posted in a long long time, but I've been fishin a lot. I'm headin up to my aunt's for a week ,and she lives right by tragedy springs RD, on Hwy 88 (2 miles from kit carson lodge). For flies, I'm guessing traditional dry fly at night, w/ small nymphs for the day time on 18 inches of tipp...
Hello all, its been a while! I went Backpacking/Camping last weekend in the Mokelumne Wilderness near Round Top Peak and camped at Fourth Of July lake. It was a thrill to catch these small Brook trout on a fly -- I must have caught 50 fish(To hand) in a 3 hr period. This was fishing at its finest to me since I...
I have one gently used Reddington Blackfoot river fly vest for sale. I paid 40 for it at AFF but will sell it for 20. I am also open to a trade for a "beginner" fly rod. I want to teach my nephew. The rod doesn't have to be anything special, walmart, big 5, doesn't matter as long as it's a graphite 5w...
Richard, Alastair, and I fished access #5 after the Putah class today. It was good fun, and I snapped some pictures of some small fish these guys were catching. Maybe this photos will help PCT's efforts with the DFG. Also included: evidence of a beaver near access #3!
Ive been hitting up the pit the last few weeks. went camping last weekend and the weekend before at deer creek campground with my cousin and had a blast both times! we caught a bunch of fish big and small. first trip the best was an 18 inch bow and a bunch of other ones in the 12-15 inch range. i would post pics...
I just got back from a family reunion over in breckenridge colorado and managed to find some time to go fishing. i fished the blue river in the town of breckenridge and below dillon reservoir where the big boys thrive. In town and below it i got into some browns but no rainbows. the highlight of the in town...
Saturday was hot, and the creek was looking good. We did manage to catch a few small fish on mayfly patterns, but nothing bigger than 12". I did see one guy hook into a large fish above the bridge, but it threw the hook. Apparently he had landed a fish over 20" earlier in the day. I tend to fish e...
I was reading about the environmental work Patagonia does and discovered that they give out grants to environmental organizations with a 501(c)(3) status. Given their work with the World Trout Initiative, I think that PCT could get some grant money for a specific project. It may be worth investiga...
At the day on the PCT day on the Yuba trip I nearly took a dive headfirst into a deep pool because the front bit of felt split apart from my boot, forming a dangerous rock-catching flap. Otter saw me (or maybe just heard me) land in 4 feet of water from a rock on shore after nearly taking a swim. I think I still o...
Gearing up to spend 10 days near Mammoth in 2 weeks, I'm somewhat familair with the area as i spent 10 days there last july. I plan to fish the owens, hot creek, a lake in the june lakes loop(silver lake), Possible east walker, beyond that I'm not sure, Thinking green creek, rush creek, virginia creek, I...
Fished for about 7 hours on the Truckee on Father's Day. The fishing was solid but not spectacular. I think that the fishing is really going to turn on soon though becuase there are a ton of hatching insects. Mayflies were all over the river yesterday. Most of my fish were caught on mayflies. Green Drake...
when freezing boots and waders do they need to be wet? My boots are in the freezer right now but they don't seem to be getting cold. last time i did the freezing thing they were wet and the y got really cold and you could tell cause they were little blocks of ice . I am going fly fishing in new hampshire and d...
Keep your indicator floating drag free on the surface. If you're fishing in 12 inches of water, yes this is true. In water knee deep and beyond, you're blowing the presentation by having the indicator drift with the film. Because of friction exerted by the substrate, water just above the streambed is...
I wasn't able to make up to the Truckee due to my anniversary on friday. I was looking forward to fishing the LT because my last trip up there in Nov with Brian an Eric I got skunked while they both hammered the fish. So for Fathers day, I honor my dad by going fishing. I started out on some go to places that al...
Took my nephews out to the creek in Winters and found a beautiful little spot with clear water, gravel and sand bottom and riffles. I was totally surprised when they pulled out a couple trout, one on a spinner and another in deep slow water on a bass lure. An 11 incher and a 13 incher. Any of you guys ever...
A film I've been wanting to see and have read much about will be playing in Yountville( about ten minutes north of Napa). Tickets are $7.00. It also mentioned several local fishing groups will be participating. Steve, if PCT isn't involved already,I thought you might be able to piggyback and we could...
Had a fun day, although quite hot. The long and the short of it is,I had a few firsts. 1: I caught my first fish at Putah this year. 2: I caught my first fish on a fly I tied myself. 3: I caught the smallest trout of my fishing career. Summary: I caught one fish, very small( the most beautiful fish I've ever se...
I'm taking a car load of kids up camping this week after they get out of their last day of school. 1 of the three oldest I've started on fly fishing and I plan on introducing the other two this summer, hopefully this trip. I had planned on going up to Gold Lakes but the weather wasn't looking so good, plus I...
