Bob Giannoni was a celebrity in the good old days of fly fishing.

He use to run the Fenwick Corporation's famous fly fishing school program.

Back in the 1970s it was a huge deal in promoting the sport.

Many world famous people worked for Bob, like Mike Lawson to name just one.


Bob helped me build my store up to what it was with his priceless free advice.


I asked Bob to teach a One Day fly fishing school for my shop and it helped many get started.


Bob contacted Sage rod company to let them know he was going to be teaching a school out of my shop in Sacramento.

Shortly 12 brand new Sage 590 LLs showed up at my shop.

Next a huge box from 3M/Scientific Angler showed up with a dozen new SA fly reels, dozen of fly lines and hundreds of leaders.


Bob retired as the director of the EDD for the California Highway Patrol.


That gives you an idea how well known and respected Bob was back in the day.

Most of the folks in the industry that Bob worked with are retired now too.
