I'll first say they are dinks, But it was fun. Thers a lil creek down the street from me that at certain times of the year at certain tides the stripers come in to feed on these little smelt. Decided to give it a try for the first time with the flyrod this evening and it was alot of fun, 7 stripers to hand in abou...
Considering the bad rap I was probably going to get for this post, going to take it down. Didn't want to confuse people to my intentions. I haven't kept a fish since I started fly fishing. Unless I plan on eating trout that night, I'm going to release them. -- Edited by jvento on Thursday 17th of Septembe...

The girlfriend and I are going to Donner for the weekend with her classmates. She has not been fishing since she was a kid and I need to assure her the $40 she spent on her fishing license this year will not be a waste! Have you guys fished Donner creek? From what I am reading online, it looks like bait fishin...
On a standard 2 nymph setup, what is the purpose of the first fly? Do you tie something on that you know will get strikes, and a different dropper just to double your chances? Or do you tie on more of an attractor type fly just to get the trouts attention and then tie a dropper that you know will get hits? -- Ed...
Dear Forum members and guests: Putah Creek Trout has submitted a request for a change in the FGC regulations that, if passed, would make from Monticello Dam to Lake Solano a year-round, zero limit, barbless artificial lures only fishery.Public support of the regulation change is a critical step i...
Was on the water early. For about 3 hours. Got 2 half pounders to net (more like quarter pounders. lol. ). Flows are coming down. I got a couple of questions. The DFG handbook states that for the purpose of filling out the steelhead card a steelhead is defined as a rainbow trout (in anadromous water...

We stayed on Henrys Lk and fished the Madison river,Henrys fork,red rock creek,quake lake,hebgen lake,hidden lake and the gallatin river. It was a great trip as u...

I was driving down 121 and saw a dead badger in the road is the hair worth skinning it for it was not real smelly. i think i could do it if i thought it wasn't a wast of time it looked in pretty good cond so I through it off the road but I bet it's getting ripe any input
I think I read somewhere about someone using a dry and a dropper any suggestions on what to use as a dropper and a dry I going to work the riffles at access five with it I had some success with a dry sunday And I would like to try variations and a dry with a dropper sounds like a good start Im just not sure witch...
I'm posting here because sometimes I believe that people view this thread more than the for sale or trade thread. Anyway I am looking for someone who may be interested in trading fly fishing gear or a guided trip for a place to take my kid dove hunting.If interested give me a call. Thanks bono 707-480=38...
Getting ready for the Iso hatch. I tied up a claret colored thread S and M nymph with peaxxxx ice dub for the thorax. Anybody have another pattern. I've heard that prince nymphs work pretty well.
RGLoft and I were at Putah today and I had fished most of the day with a red copper John and a zebra midge; I wanted to switch to a green Wooly Bugger but I wasn't really sure when is a "good" time to use one?? I've heard Trout like them but they are so different than my other flies-- does anyone use a...

The flows were up, i'm not sure what they were didn't check. i haven't been on putah since april. Anyway access #3 was looking or sounding good. i was short on time today a...

We made a last run above the HWY 20 bridge on Sunday, as the river closed today until December 1st for fishing that stretch. I thought I might see the first couple of salmon in the system, but none were around. It was another HOT day, near 100 degrees. The fishing was pretty good in the morning, but shut d...
My fishing this summer has been severely curtailed due to the arrival of my daughter, but I might get a free day next weekend. I was thinking about heading up to the North Fork of the Stanislaus or maybe nearby Beaver Creek. Anybody been up there lately? Are the flows too low now? Thanks, Eric
Here are a few pix of some stripers I caught in CT on my summer vacation. It was my first time fly fishing for stripers and, let me tell you, it was a blast. Having that much fun is usually illegal... I can't wait to go again. Anyone have a boat and know where to fish the Delta? Hint, hint. 19 fish to hand, all re...
