Again finally getting around to posting the summer's fun. I figure if I risked dropping my phone in the river to get shots of fish I should at least share them. The family and I did the great...

Getting around to finally posting this summer's activities. My daughter and I did a father daughter backpacking trip to desolation wilderness. Of course this had to involve some fly fishing as well...

The first two calls I called back thinking it was my wife back to get me early.

I had a couple of hours to fish the North Fork of the Yuba. Had a great time fishing and catching on a beautiful stretch of the river. My wife was picking me up at a designated pull out so after I...

Fished Silver Fork last Saturday and Caples Creek was fishable and wadable, the Silver Fork was high and really too fast to be productive, I went elsewhere. I talked to the Ranger in Placerville and...

I really try to stay with natural materials, and try to really stay true to the original patterns and materials called for in the recipe. So if an older recipe will mostly call for the natural...

Let's see if my signature comes up with my name. Thanks for making people own up to their words.

Chris is great used him a couple of years ago on the LT and he was a great guide. Fished the LT last monday and had a blast on my own.

I have to iron some shirts today so will use on my calf tail as well and prep enough for a dozen or so. Nothing like the smell of hot fur. I will also use the dryer sheet as well. I experimented...

I am using it for tying some "Trude's". I removed the under fur before trying to stack it. It is clean and dry. I will try the fabric softener. I didn't want to use polypro yarn and have thought...

Any tips on stacking calf tail? No matter how hard I smack it the tips just don't align.

Thanks for any help

Wooly Bugger,

Seems I was not far from you with similar results. Went to Emigrant Wilderness last weekend and fished hard with only a few fish. I was covered in Caddis yet couldn't get any...

The patterns I want to start with are Pheasant Tails, cased caddis' as nymphs, and parachute adams and EHC as the first four patterns to try. I am almost exclusively trout fishing for now as it is...

This is probably more like 3 threads but hope to get some help with getting started with fly tying. I would prefer to go to the shop to get these questions answered and get all my supplies but don't...

We'll be back often. Might seek out some more off the path water in that creek. I was surprised that they would bite in the rain/snow, I can only figure that they thought winter was coming too. I am...

Had a day off and decided to try out some new water. A buddy and I picked the Silver Fork of the American. (Thanks Ed Wahl for your help). Started out at O'Dark Thirty from the bay area beautiful...

I was in Yosemite over the 4th weekend and went out of Toulomne Meadows and went up to Vogelsang and fished Fletcher Lake and can attest to a lot of brook trout action. Mostly on the small side but...

Wonder who all you would suggest for guiding in Truckee area in August. I followed the link but was hoping to get a little insight on who I should sign up with.

I was there yesterday and have never seen anything like it. Hiked through the quarry from the bridge and past the attack dogs. Made it about a mile up before was flooded out. Full sized trees were...

They have been all over the Bay Area from Fremont to Oakland. The concentration is unreal. Too bad Trout don't eat them.

How does he make it look so simple? Mine would end up like a big old ball of fluff. Good thing there's a place like Kiene's to buy someone else's.

New to the sport and to the site. Looking to go to the Stanislaus this next week and was hoping for some recommendations on fly selection. Nymphs and Dries.
