I heard the flow has come down on Putah Creek.

Heard that it has been good over there from a local expert.

They are using very small #18/20 nymphs.....WD40s / PT / caddis larva / Midge lava


With the low flows it should be easier to wade now.

They usually drop flows temporarily about now for maintenance then ramp them back up until mid October.

Thanks Mickey

Thought it was a little early.

Hey All!

I am really excited for the Fall fishing at Putah Creek. This Summer was excellent and I expect more of the same going forward.

Fishing has been excellent recently and was great last weekend with good numbers of really healthy fish being hooked. Putah trout are fat! Flows are at 413 cfs tonight, up from the mid-300s cfs during the weekend. Big increases will slow fishing however sub-500 flows are less effected and fishing should remain good.

Give a call with any questions or to book a trip.

Thanks for the excellent info Rob.

Exciting to hear Putah Creek has some good fishing in it now.

Finally home! I euro fished a couple days last week, and after changing out several of the normal "go to's" on the creek, a small#16 BH Birds Nest (hares ear) finally netted a few little guys. Very little insect activity noted before noon.

Water is pushing 466 as I type. I am going to give it another go in the morning then I am headed east until the water drops to 350cfs and under

I counted half a dozen spin fishermen on the creek Wednesday and had to remind one gentleman about C&R as well as barbless hooks. Wasn't too happy with me... (I am over it!) Not sure if there is a "regs" sign posted at Canyon Creek, but t would be a good to do so, if needed.

No fish in Putah Creek except carp... Stay away from that place.. My buddy Rob might be able to find some of the last fish remaining... Need to use a size 30 midge with 7x or something close. Go to the Truckee or North Yuba!!

Omg Chris! Thanks! I guess?? Lollllll
P.s. will you be able to make the clean-up Sept 15th?
P.p.s. Will you guys be hanging at your secret lake this Fall before it closes?? Would be great to fish with some P.C. originals!!

Had to try and scare a few people away for a day..... If you want to go pig hunting call Rob. Going to the cleanup and heading out to many lakes in Late Sept.
