Now that the flows are starting to go down for Fall (currently at 204cfs), I wanted to share my thoughts on fishing Putah and discussions on the board. I think there is a balance that we should strike regarding discussing fishing success on the Putah and ensuring that we aren't contributing to the phenomena of "Hot Spotting". This is obviously subjective. Putah Creek is NOT a secret to the local fishing community and should be cherished and celebrated by ALL of the community. That being said, it is an extremely small fishery - only ~4.5 miles much of which is UNfishable due to vegetation and topography. It is the closest wild trout stream fishery to the Napa, Bay Area, and Sacramento metropolitan areas. This can lead to significant fishing pressure (duh). 2022 Putah Creek IDR Cleanup success! Thank you to all of the volunteers that helped make our little piece of water more enjoyable and safe for everyone to enjoy! We collected ~800 pounds of trash and 100 pounds of recyclables. #coastalcleanupday #putahcreektrout #pickupyourtrash 2022 Putah Creek Interdam Reach Cleanup is Saturday 9/17/22. Please consider joining us as a service to the resource that we all enjoy.

Per Steve Karr “We collected 150 lbs of recyclables and filled the 10 yd dumpster with an impressive 1800 lbs of trash including a torn down shed and other construction materials that had been illegally dumped near Fishing Access 2 and Fishing Access 1.

Light at the end of the tunnel... A new season on the creek. What a beautiful day to wade right in (carefully). Here’s hoping that we will soon be able to come back together and do the work improving the creek that we love! Look for coming opportunities soon! Putah Creek Trout just completed our annual spawning survey. Overall, there appears to be a healthy population of mature fish reproducing in the system. Many redds were counted in the usual places. PCT will also be tracking the effect of flow changes with concern for potentially dewatering some of shallow redds. PCT supports the community-led recommendation to not fish between December and March. Peace. #putahcreektrout #mindtheredd
