I hope all is well and you are enjoying the Season! Growing up in the Valley and it's summer heat, I find the older I get the more I enjoy the colder months, you can always dress for the cold but when it's super hot it's just that...

Putah Creek is somewhere I have a long history with, one of the original "Home Waters" I have been guiding since 1984 along with the Stanislaus, Calaveras and Mokelumne rivers.
When asked about my favorite places to fish or guide, I always share the fact that Putah is perhaps the most exciting still because at certain times of the year, you never know what you may hook into! I can't tell you how many clients have caught or hooked fish that would be considered the fish of a lifetime....

A few things make it special also would be small flies, (Tiny actually), light tippets and super smart fish, one of the best places to hone nymphing skills that will serve you well anywhere in the world! I learned my techniques there, along with the other waters mentioned, and developed certain presentations for certain runs, like different shots in Golf for different lies and holes( For you Golfers)....

Mark was a fantastic guide. Throughly knowledged in the fly fishing world for bass or any sort of fish. He also is well versed in teaching first time fly fisherman how to fish. Loved everything about the trip! Mark is the best. He knows how to fish the DELTA!

James and his deck hand were awesome! Made the trip easy, comfortable and very rewarding. We maxed out limit so left with a cooler filled. Will definitely use him again when we come back to the Bay Area, high recommend!
