While at the shop yesterday for our Pie & Ice Cream event I learned from my old staff that the store has been "smoken'" ever since the merger.

Daily sales have been way above expectations, doing more volume now than the two stores did separately.

Kiene's and American's staff members have blended together nicely.

This make Marilyn & I very happy........


Kiene's always had a good walk in business and now with the bigger store and larger inventory it is better than ever.

Gary Eblen has had the best online fly fishing store in our area so that really helps too.

We have a growing nice guide service out of our shop now.

We have classes and clinic all the time.


They are also having big events at the shop about every month.

In August we are having a big vender/manufacturers event where our customers will be able to see the new 2016 products before anyone else.

We will also have a big first annual Sacramento Spey Day on the American River with lots of manufacturers and Spey professionals. This will be with Fly Fishing Specialties to make it a huge deal for two handed fly fishing in Sacramento.

The shop is open 7 days a week and does ship out daily.

Toll free USA phone is 800/400-0359

When ever you get near Sacramento please try to stop by the shop.

Our entire staff is out fishing weekly somewhere so it is a hot bed of fly fishing information.

Welcome:

Each season Sacramento Bar river access adds a special touch to the uniqueness of the American River Parkway, located just across from the Lower Sunrise Recreation Area.

Fast Facts:

Sacramento Bar is a popular spot along the river year-round. Winter and autumn find salmon fishermen elbow-to-elbow in the chilly water.

Summer finds legions of rafters drifting past the San Juan Rapids past picnicking families.

Spring brings wildflowers, animals and nature-seeking hikers to the area.

How to Get There:

From U.S. Highway 50, take the Sunrise Blvd. off-ramp. Head north to Fair Oaks Blvd. Make a left on Fair Oaks, then an immediate left onto Pennsylvania Avenue. The kiosk is at the end of Pennsylvania Avenue, just past Magnolia Street.
