Around 2:00 I went to an old favorite spot and with an old favorite fly landed a very fat girl around 22" Went home after sticking two more much smaller ones. That...
Apparently, an assembly woman from Bakersfield has drafted legislation to, among other things, remove sport fishing protections for striped bass.? This move, done under the guise of protecting salmon stocks in the Delta, appears to be a big giveaway to agricultural interests that pump water to c...

Wanted to know if you guys thought it would...
Yesterday I went near the bridge to do some after-work angling. The flows were up, the fishing down, and the trash all around. After nymphing and streamer fishing for a bit, I switched almost entirely to trash collecting. Does anyone have any luck/tips when the flows jump up a bit? Vince

Hey All ... Closing out a week of Mr Mom, cleverly disguised as spring break ... I need a vacation from my vacation. Got out to the creek at worst possible times, on an incredible day Saturday. I've heard the "bite was off", but yesterday was rediculous.? I walked lower #3 all the way to upper #...

?Steelhead season in Jeopardy!!!I heard from a contact within the PSMFC (part of NOAA) that due to the low counts of steelhead returning this last fall, the state is looking at pulling the plug on steelhead this year much like they did to salmon.
