Fishing any of the foothill lakes is a great alternative to trout fishing. Some places to try are Lake Berryessa, Spring Lake in Santa Rosa, Lake Camanche, Pardee Reservoir, Lafayette and San Pablo Reservoirs, and the Delta. Learn to tie the flies that really produce in the Delta - the Flashtail Whistler, Sea Habit, and Clouser. Learn the techniques to handle and taper bucktail, epoxy, and hackles to make these flies look tasty to the stripers. Highly recommended class.
