I don't know if any of you fish the Russian River for steelhead, but there is some good news. Someone on the Northern California Kayak forum posted some photos of the mouth open. I called Kings in Guerneville just to make sure. They confirmed that it wide open and they expect the Russian to rise to 20...

Has anyone attempted the little Truckee lately? Its my understanding that the water is open year round but nearly inaccessible this time of year. Any insight or suggestions for other water would be greatly appreciated.

A few weeks ago Chris Yama (aka "Otter") and I went Davis Lake and then Pyramid Lake NV. Davis was a little slow, but the fish were averaging close to 20 inches. Chris and I both landed 22"ers which were a lot hotter than I remember them. Two of mine took me into the backing. Chris caug...

Has anybody fished the Lower Yuba recently? Water flow looks good for wading across and I'm planning to get an early start Thursday and fish through the morning till it gets too hot to fish. Am I wasting time by going? Any recommendations for nymphs or dries? I just have to get out with my fly rod before I...

For those of you waiting for spawning season to end at Putah... I went to the Lower Yuba on Sat and caught a few 14 inchers, plus hooked a few other good sized ones. My buddy caught one in the 24 inch range, and hooked another that was probably 18+. The rain and recent high flows added some tint, which I he...

Does the Pit #3 tend to get blown out with the type of rain we have been getting the last week or so? Basically, what does it take to muddy Lake Britton?

Otter · Otter

Well another great day on the Yuba… Bright silver fish and full of fight. Quit arguing about the little creek and hike for some real fish. The fish were keying on small pmds size 18 and midges size 20. Don't use an egg they don't work.

Well the fall fishing season is in full swing. From the lakes to the rivers the fishing has been good to great. Went to Lake Davis and the fishing was pretty good for Clay (Iamamultitasker) and I. There weren't a lot of fish, but all the fish averaged about twenty inches. Have been hitting a few rive...

I've fished the creek a few times the last month. Surprised at how much trash was around. Found a bunch of large barbed hook rigs on yards of line. I think we all need to make a commitment to take a few handfuls out each visit. Beautiful place that needs a few more stewards.
