Here's the report on Davis from the Sportmen's Den:
RATING - FAIR
The lake has risen to 93 percent, and the launch ramps at Lightning Tree and Old Camp 5 are open, but Honker remains gated. Trout...
The only issue I would have with the design is that you will be sitting quite low in the water even with the inflatable seat. If you want to fish dry flies and there is a chop on the water, you may...
My brother and I visited Hat Creek in June of 2016 two years before the video was made. The meadow section below the power house was very shallow. There were a couple of people in the parking lot...
There was a VERY sparse hatch each day that I presume were callibaetis. As a consequence risers were VERY sporadic. I began fishing Manzanita probably in the early 80's when the callibaetis hatch...
I fished Manzanita from 1:30 to 4:00 on Sunday and from 10:30 to 3:30 on Monday. On Sunday the "fishing" was good but the "catching" was pretty dismal. In 2 1/2 hours I hooked 7 fish but landed...
Long ago I used to fish the Henrys Fork but always in late September. I don't remember if it was in one of his videos or whether I heard him say it but Mike Lawson said "When in doubt, put on a...
I was midging. The two flies that produced were the 49er and a bright pink midge. I'm sure the flies were important but with so few other anglers I was able to fish wherever I wanted. Luckily I...
I fished the "cliff" section of Pelican for 3 hours on Sunday and 5 hours on Monday. On Sunday there were only about 10 other anglers. In the three hours of fishing I saw only one fish caught and...
It goes to show you that "location, location, location" can be the key at Pyramid. I talked to a guy from Wyoming who had fished for three days. His only fish came on Monday. He was a newbie to...
I fished Pyramid (Pelican) for 3 1/2 hours on Monday and 5 hours on Tuesday. I fished from 3:00-6:30 on Monday and 11:15-4:15 on Tuesday. Pelican had a ton of anglers fishing all the way from the...
I have an AT&T cell phone and I have never been able to get phone service at either Putah creek or Manzanita lake. I'm sure there are lots of other streams and lakes off the beaten track where cell...
My brother and I were fortunate to fish Fall River in the 70's. One day we experienced the most prolific hatch we had ever seen. We were heading downstream from Rick's lodge and turned right into...
I fished Manzanita 2 1/2 hours on Sunday and 5 hours on Monday. Both days were VERY windy. Sunday was a complete bust. I had one fish on, a strike from a small fish, and one other possible hit. ...
No. I was actually indicating. Monday the hot fly was a pink midge and Tuesday it was the Forty Niner. I really don't know why I foul-hooked so many fish. But the way they fought, I'm guessing...
I fished Monday for 3 1/2 hours and Tuesday for 5 hours. Monday was warm with light winds making fishing tough. Tuesday was much cooler with steady winds 10-15 mph making for better fishing but...
My brother and I fished Pyramid on Sunday for 3 hours and Monday for 5 hours. Sunday was tough due to very light winds, calm water and bluebird skies. I didn't see many fish caught by other...
Can you tell me if the goose hunters are still out near the lake? Without going into detail, my fishing partner has some medical problems that would be aggravated by shotguns going off unexpectedly...
My brother and I stopped by the Fly Shop in the 80's but it was closed. Just as we were about to drive away, Mike pulls into the parking lot. He asked us where we were going to fish. He opens up...
They say that timing is everything and my experience with Martis proves it. I hit the lake in the late 70's 3 or 4 times and did pretty well on the cutthroats. There seemed to be two sizes of fish,...
My brother and I have been fishing Manzanita since the mid-80's to early 90's (so long ago I can remember). The lake was always a challenge but it was rare to catch a fish under 15 inches. 17...
I had a double hookup at Pyramid. I was using two midges under an indicator. When i set the hook, I thought I had a big fish on. However, when I got the fish to within 15 feet, I could see both...
ATTENTION: Yolo County has closed all Fishing Accesses on Putah Creek until further notice. Violators of the order may be cited for trespassing. Yolo County Sheriff's deputies will be providing...
For me, fly fishing and fly tying are closely intertwined. I have been fly fishing for over 45 years and fly tying for over 35 years. What enhances my enjoyment of fly fishing is trying to find...
My brother and I still take trips together. However, due to some medical problems with my wife, I can't get away nearly as often as I used to. But you are right about the quality time with my...
My brother and I were fortunate to be able to take yearly trips in late September to Idaho/Montana from the early 70's to the late 90's. I'm guessing I fished Nelson's 35-40 days. Armstrong 50+ days...
