I first met Lloyd Silvius in 1970 while attending College of the Redwoods in Humboldt County. I met Art Dedini about the same time also. Lloyd taught me the basics of the double haul cast on the...

I fished that stretch of the Klamath way back in the mid 70’s. I remember a rough dirt road and a small wooden sign at the Oregon/California border. It was primitive camping and never saw another...

I also went to Humboldt State back in the 70's and made it a point to fish both Big Lagoon and Stone Lagoon. I actually favored Stone Lagoon at the time because I could sight fish for cruising...
If my foggy memory serves me correctly, Playa Nosara is located just N. of Tamarindo. A beautiful spot on a white sand beach and very few people. Also, there are also some very seculded small beaches...
Jason, a few years ago I spent a week in Tamarindo in the month of Feb. There was some decent action in the surf right in front of the big hotel early in the morning for smallish amberjacks that were...

These great posts and this stormy weather really brings me back to those days of swinging flies for steelhead back in the 1970's on the lower Eel River.
Speaking of sentimental, that is where I...

As you know, stripers are where you find them and sometimes you find stripers in Whiskey slough. Once when I was shorebound due to medical reasons, I actually fly fished from shore at Whiskey Slough...
Charles, Not a stupid question at all. My only question is why I have not seen more use of shooting heads on lakes. Shooting heads are the only lines I have ever used on high sierra lakes. My go...
We used to float that stretch of river quite often in years past and had the best fishing in March. We used a 16' Alumaweld drift boat and actually preffered the higher water. This was back in the...
Thats one nice fish Joey! You keep that up and you'll be outfishing most of us before you know it. I bet that fish gave you a good fight too. Remember, don't fish the reports, fish the water and...
Mike, I was fishing out of my boat, an older 15 1/2 foot tri-hull that I modified with a casting deck up front. I am without a trolling motor right now so I usually anchor a good distance from my...
The plan was to do some striper fishing in one of my favorite South Delta sloughs. On the water at 0700 and first thing I see are surface boils tight to the weed lines. Well, can't pass up feeding...
It really is unfortunate that you are having constant vandalism on the American River. I was a park worker for many years in San Joaquin Co. and we had the same problems at the river parks. The park...
