I've heard there are some trout in this creek. I'm going up there with some buddies and doing some back-packing in sunol park. Anyone know anything about this creek?
Thanks

For Christmas my in-law got me a new fly tying vice (The danville from?orvis) and after little use (approx. 2 months) the jaws on it went bad.? So I sent it back to Orvis and they replaced it for me.? Then about 2 months later, and again after little use the same thing happened with the replacement vice.? W...
I'm making a 10 day trip to the eastern sierra's in a few weeks and was looking for any help, hints, tips, info, or whatever else anyone may have to offer. I'm looking at camping maybe at convict lake and or near lee vining creek. These spots look pretty good to have a base camp to hit alot of water, I'd like t...
Did a little hiking with the float tube to get to one of my favorite spots.? It was worth the effort.? I even picked up a few fish on a yellow sally dry at the end of the day.? Both fish on the dries slammed the yellow sally even though I haven't seen one for a few weeks. The fish in pic 4 was caught on a S and M nymph...

Spent the day on Putah Creek with the infamous Guide - Greg Bonovich and the fishing was good.? My buddy landed a 22.5 inch beauty and all together we caught 10 (most of them much smaller).?

I just got back from four days of fishing the Pit river below lake Britton. My buddy and I were the only ones fishing and we didn't see another soul the whole time we were there.?

I headed out to the creek this morning for the first time since February.? I saw a hatchery truck pulling away?from the resort side as I got there.??I was glad I brought my float tube today.? I didn't want to hook into hatchery fish on every cast.? I didn't hook many fish today, but the ones I did hook were g...

Hit the creek a number of time over the last couple of months...Fishing has been great.Plenty of wild fish and the first year fish are starting to show in good numbers.Ive been catching fish in some pretty odd places.I think some of the bigger fish have pushed the smaller guys(12"-14") out...

Hi All, I have been away for a while and was thinking about a trip up this week or next. Any news on the planter front, have they started? I always want to avoid the sections with those hopeless little guys in it if I can. Also any word on bigger browns?
I've been itching to get up to the sierra for some time, and I finally fished the middle fork stan out of sand bar flat this weekend.? The fishing (and the weather) was fantastic. I pulled in 13 fish on Saturday - one big rainbow (18 inches or so), several medium browns (12-14 inch) and a whole bunch of smal...
Guys, I'm still waiting for 4 sets of flies and I'd really like to get this done and mailed out to everyone. The original completion date was March 1st...it's going to be May in a couple of days. You know who you are, let's get them in the mail to me by this weekend please.
Thanks,

Hey everyone.? Well, no one posts anything in the local forums, even the ones designed for the entire state of Minnesota, so since this section dosen't state that this other water must be inside California, I figure I'll just post here.? I fished Putah this winter, and was glad to fish without a jacket...
OK - it's offcial. I've caught multiple small natives two trips in a row.? Got one 9 inch feisty little sucker tightlining a deep pool.? He took an orange caddis pupa.? That was the only take I had on a nymph in a few hours of nymphing.? Can't believe how slow the fishing's been on nymphs in traditional spo...
Played in a golf tourney Saturday morning, grabbed some lunch and decided to make a run to the Yuba to get in some dry fly fishing Sat. Night and Sunday. Figured with all the other rivers opening, why the hell would anyone hit the ugly old Yuba.? Well, Saturday afternoon/evening was crowded as all get ou...
I'm envious reading over different reports from Opening Day.? With ALL of my preparations, I didn't make it out!? Freak accident--Split my chin and cheek open early Saturday morning on the kitchen cupboard while making a PB&J sandwich.? Outside of those sandwiches, everything was packed.? N...
So, I got out very late, (around 6:45) and fished till dark. Was a perfect evening, with no wind, 75 degree temps and a pretty good stone fly, baetis and midge hatch.? Not many caddis. Not much surface action from 6:45 until 8:00 or so, but then as soon as it got almost too dark to see a small caddis on the sur...
Fished the middle fork stan. this weekend for a few days. The fishing was a little slower then i would have expected. Caught mostly browns 14 to 16 inchers with one nice one mixed in that was about 18 to 20 inches, All my fish came on dry's, parachute adams, and a fly that basically looks like an all black ad...
I fished for 3 hours this morning and landed 7 fish, 5 of them were planters. The issue that has been bothering me?the past 3 trips to Putah is the large number of people who are clearly violating the fishing regs, even after the Puath Creek Trout organization installed all the new fishing regulations s...
