Starlight Leech--I found this fly while google'ng the web. ?It's an easy tie and might be a neat fly for steelhead. ?Follow this link for a look: http://www.bubbleshare.com/album/90501/overview Anyone tried it? ?I've already tied up 8 in various colors. ?Don't know if I want to tie another 6 or 8? ?...
Drove up on Friday with a friend.? On Saturday we were joined by a buddy and fished the upper Klamath east of 5.? Overcast and cold.? We waded and caught 50 plus fish, mainly half pounders and wild,?with a half dozen from 5 to 7 pounds.? It was so good my friend and I decided to fish it again on Sunday.? Clear...

I am on a quest to find a comfortable way to carry my fly fishing gear.? I have tried the standard Orvis style wading vest and more recently a William Joseph Mini-II chest pack.? I have found both pretty uncomfortable, especially for extended trips.? I have looked at the Fishpond product offerings, bu...
Hey everyone,Im just posting some pics of the boat that is on its way!! Im hoping to be done by spring and then the fish will be in trouble... -- Edited by live2fish888 at 15:13, 2008-12-06
The new California Fly Fisher has a great write up and painting from? Yukon Mike.? The painting is of the Silver Fork.? Great job on the painting!!? Now I know why you are Yukon Mike since you are from Alaska.? It must be tough fishing for little trout when you grew up with big salmon all over the place.

Spent a few sweet hours on the creek today. Kinda foggy yet kinda sunny never saw another person. Fishing was pretty good too. Missed a few landed a few, one of which was one to remember?an absolute tank with an attitude. 25" with some big ol shoulders.

Has anybody played this game for pc? I've read that you can tie your own custom flies and it's a very educational game. Wondering if it's worth the 30 bucks that I can put towards a new pair of waders instead.
Brian, Shawn and I hit the creek long and hard on Sunday.? It was a tough day.? Brian had a few misses and got a nice one in the fanny, Shawn had a smaller one on and off and I was a big zippo for the day.? I spoke with a number of other guys fishing the river and it was pretty much the same except for one guy who land...
Flows up to 90 cfs-this is probably SCWA doing their pulse release?for the salmon that come up the creek from the Sac River toe drain to spawn? below the diversion dam. If so, they?should last about a week at this level before dropping again.
Went to the E. Carson thanksgiving morning for a couple hours.? It was cold & the fishing was really slow.? I didn't take a temp reading, but the water was much colder than even just a couple weeks ago.? I started with a few holes and riffles?that I always seem to catch fish in.? This time I only manage...
well had a 3day vacation so why not hit up some sierra rivers before the snow comes in. fished the little truckee tues with lilwhipper (eric) and weds with him as well as black cloud (james). all i can say is good times good times. the fishing was slow in the am on both days, but it picked up as the day progres...
They say it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. That thought came to mind while contemplating the the second BIG fish I'd hooked and played for about 15 minutes and subsequntly lost yesterday. Got to the parking area above the bridge at about 6:30 and was streamside before fi...
Now that the regular season is closed its time to watch for the intentional violators, or the simply uninformed, that are using illegal methods of fishing on the creek. Keith's Sticky Topic contains some good posts and?a link to report suspicious activity. You might also call Cal-TIP toll-free: 1-...
Gave putah a go at it today, Not a great day, but by?no means a bad day. More people out then i thought would be, but still alot less then your typical weekend. I don't know how many fish i caught, But does it really matter ? Was a decent early morning bite, Thats seems to be a pattern for me the last few weeks, g...
?Headed up to the upper sac on wed with 2 friends, got there about 8am fished cantara loop which is some nice water, smaller than the lower sections. We all caught a few on dries in the 8-12" range. The water there is low so the best way to go would be dry fly indicater to nymph rig. We saw a couple big bow...
?I would just like to say thank you to northwest flyfishing magazine for helping make Putah more crowded!!!? I thought going on Monday would be a good idea but I guess a lot of other people had the same idea.? Im so tired of the idiot magazine publishers doing this s___. Putah is to small of a stream to have...
Went out to the Little Truckee for the first time ever last Friday.? Fished about 1-2 miles down from the dam.? Got on the water by 8:30 and was out of there around noon.? It was COLD that morning; 22 degrees!? Spent much of the first hour knocking off ice until it warmed up.? I didn't have as much action as B...
Started at?Access #1 around 9am but it looked really crowded. Headed to Access #3 with my wife and with SouthPaw as well. As you can see by the pictures we hauled in some real hawgs. Rumor has it these pigs spawn throughout the year but increase in numbers from April through November. You stand your best...
