I have been hitting the creek once or twice a week for the last couple of months, but haven't had no where near the results some of you have written about. I thought sooner or later I would see some of these pigs, so I continued to put in the time and pay my dues. Today was the day! I ran across some nice size fis...

I've been an east coast small stream fly fisher for years and want to get back into fly fishing after having moved to the SfFBay area a few years ago. I thought I'd like to try surf casting for Surf perch, around the Santa Cruz, Monterey areas. What's the time of year when these are catchable? thanks!
We've received disturbing information from SCWA that the lead weighted redd markers have been removed from at least one spawning study area at the head of the guide run (aka guide hole). If you have any information on who is doing this please send PM to me. As a reminder, Solano County Water Agency is co...
I was just wondering what you guys thought about rivers that allow bait fishing, but are catch and release only. Why would DFG allow bait fishing if the fisherman can't keep any? The steelhead are gonna swallow the bait and now after having a hook remover down their throat they're gonna be released bac...
I fished the Russian river today from Monte Rio down to Cassinis.? The water was very low and clear.? A few fish were spotted and not one person on that part of the river hooked up. It was a great day of fishing minus the fish.? The River needs more water and some color.

Somebody e-mailed me a few weeks ago and mentioned his concern about all of the pictures of fish laying on gravel or mud and asked me to say something about it.We have in the past had a thread that spoke of this subject and I think it is a good idea to bring it up again.It is probably best to try to mostly keep t...

Fished Putah with Shon42073......it was slooooooowww today. Started out promising with 2 hook ups on solid fish within the first half hour, thought the rest of the day would go like that but boy were we wrong. That was it all day, not even another bite. Very few fishermen on the creek today so that was ni...

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm thinking the Sierras.?Thanks for any advice or past expiriences...
??Just curious what people's thoughts are on Putah as an individual Creek, meaning the must knows to this individual water, it's difference's and challenges, seasonal observations, etc.??It's just that people claim this as difficult terrritory for the common joe and has finicky fish, as well as...
