I know that this is a fishing forum but I'd venture to guess there are a fair number of you that either hunt or own guns as well. This one just threw me for a loop.

Today's Putah Creek Profile (PCP) is of local legend Orvis Remington-Peters. Petey, as he is known to his friends, is a PC original with close to 40 years of experience nailing those Big Monster Fish. Modest to a fault, he claims he has no special skills or techniques to account for his success: "...
Recently,? I have talked to a number of new FF on the Creek that were not aware of the NZMS infestation and danger of moving it to other waters in/on their fishing gear.

Got the bug a few weeks ago and offered to take a colleague out and give him a 'guided' trip on Putah.? We fished between 3 and the bridge (different spots) and although...

This rifle is perfect for the upcoming deer season. It is in like new condition, no scratches, only fired a few times....

Maybe 12ea flies of patterns that are working for me,subject to change depending on the success of the flies. I just thought doing this might generate some income to help offset the cost of running this s...

Well, after rather futile morning on the yuba on tuesday (as it is still pretty dirty), i decided to change tactics and go bass fish. ?I went to a nearby lake and managed to do pretty well in a couple hours, about 5 to hand. ?All takes were extremely aggressive, it seems like the fish are already in the pre-...

Any info on fishing the headwaters of putah?? I drove past the creek near Middletown last week, of course it was flowing big and merky do to the rain.? Just wondering if it were worth exploration, perhaps closer to the lake.
Yuba is pretty muddy, probably 1 foot vis, towards marysville the water is a litter less murky but still pretty off color. ?Up top is pretty bad. ?Plenty of bugs out and about, but they were spared by the trout today, ?just too muddy. ?Give it a couple days. -- Edited by drifter at 18:20, 2009-03-08
Forum Members: PCT needs help for a daily report on water clarity of the Creek for the rest of March. If you visit the creek and can do a brief post afterwards under this topic, that will be much appreciated. We are especially interested in how deep you can see into the water as we need 18"-24" o...
Not a big one but it works for me. You won't see me put a split shot any further up the line than 4 inches from the point fly. It tangles less and the fish are not bothered by it at all. I don't false cast very much but when you need to it makes it less likely to knot up.
I?am beginning tp lan a Truckee run for 2009.? I was thinking of the weekend of June 19, 20,21.? This will be prime fishing time in the Truckee area.?
