Yes. In the distant past (30+ yrs ago) I caught several Grayling in Woods Lake near Caples. Not sure if any have been introduced in the area since then.

The lower parking area at the dam is all paved now. Upper end is about the same. Vaughn
Made a Bonsai trip to Fuller yesterday afternoon. Learned that DFG had deposited 1800lbs earlier in the day. The camp host (nice guy) said some larger fish were in the mix. Nice way to beat the...
No- the tank was completely empty! Real skinny fish- shaped more like a Lingcod. Put one heck of a bend in the 6wt though... I heard DFG recently planted the lake... that should fatten'em up a bit....
Hi Bill,
Not the best pic- but here it is... yea, I kept this one. I'm usually reluctant to admit keeping any fish, but I do occasionally. Had some last night- good stuff! Vaughn
Did my annual trip to Caples yesterday- beautiful day, especially with all the fresh snow. Bit of a challenge finding a place to safely get to the water with the tube so finally just put-in at the...
JPS- no, I didn't take water temp on this trip.
Gave Davis a try on Sunday morning. Spent a couple hours off Jenkins searching with attractor patterns from the tube. Decided to cover water and depth by just dragging two lines- one Camo, one Rio...
Fished from Sycamore down to the dam this AM. Slower for me than expected especially with all the salmon doing their thing... the DFG boats driving over my water didn't help. I always seem to time...
I'm selling my little 8' Bass Tracker. It's an older '92 model, but it's in reasonable shape for it's age and tons of good fishing mojo. comes with a 55lb thrust Endura trolling motor and deep...
Congratulations on the new toy and good choice!
For the wet iPhone- as quickly as possible turn it off and remove the case and all port caps. Try to blow out as much water as possible either with a hair dryer or manually and then submerge in a...
Bill, the moisture factor is far less an issue with the SuperCat- one quick wipe with a towel an your good to go... the other nice feature, and one seldom discussed is the height adjustment. I set...
I highly recommend you look at a "SuperCat" http://www.supercat.us/
The Super Fat Cat is great (I had one for many years) and was considering buying another after my side adjustment straps...
Are you measuring from the fork in the tail or the tips?
Hi all,
Ran down to the American below the hatchery this PM. Left the flyrod at home and threw hardware for a change. Was slow rolling a spoon in deep water when I hooked and landed a 5lb female...
Last year at this time I caught two fish up at Mosquito packed with snails- crunchy bellies and all. I posted a couple of stomach content pics. Since then I've caught countless Davis fish without a...
Hi again Jon,
Well, just to be sure I wasn't dreaming last night- I went outside and actually looked at the fish guts again. Yep- snails. I know this is a big deal and super good news for the...
Hi Jon,
Yes, most definitely snails. A few fish made it home with me and I inspected the stomach contents. This is good news...
Good luck at Eagle- I was thinking of going there myself this...
Fished Mosquito area yesterday- 11:00 to 4:00. One other tube on the water. The fishing is unbelieveable right now. Stripping an olive/rust bugger produced a strike on literally every cast...
Hi Forelle- you have a PM...
Vaughn
Oh yea- it would be a blast catching those Cuts on a dry... the fish aren't shy either- on two occasions they grabbed a bug within a rod length of the float tube. I witnessed this last year as well...
I took my nephew to Pyramid on Saturday for his 1st FF (and tubing) experience. Decided to avoid the usual crowd at Pelican and drove up to the stretch of beach just north of Monument Rock. ...
Hi Michael,
Hopefully your Hopper II is still available-
I'd like to buy your boat and will pay your price. At present I am traveling on business and am out if the country in Vietnam but will...
Hi all,
I'm heading to Pyramid on Saturday- does anyone have a fresh report?
Thanks-
