Hi Jeff, did you see my private email?

Fished Sailor Bar to Rossmoor on Monday. Landed an 18", lost a smaller half pounder and a nice adult. Wow, that wind was something, kept blowing me upstream. Had to push my way downstream all day...

Not cheap is a slight understatement :) But very good and fun atmosphere.

Looking for a good Spey casting instructor in the San Jose are. Someone who would instruct at the Campbell ponds.

Talked to Simon G. (Rio) at the Golden Gate Rio Day last Saturday. Asked about the new "game changer" head. We talked about depth of swing and such. He says that he always uses a floating line...

Jeff, now that you're retired, you need to become a Striper-aholic as well. Sure could use that daily Striper report.

Floated the Lower Yuba yesterday with my son. A lot of smoke as you'd expect. It did keep the temps down but didn't help the fishing much. Only one dink to the boat. Still any day on the river...

Thanks guys, she really was a labor of love.

Jeff, I remember you - 50+ fish when we passed you. Andy said you were the Shad-I-master :)

I've heard that the Lower American has a great dry fly season in April/March. Considering the Steelhead are out to sea, wondering what we're fishing for? I didn't know there were resident trout...

Was there today. Clear and getting higher - they raised it 150CFS over the last two days.

I was fished it years ago. Beautiful little stream. Also heard the boat access was very limited and a bit confrontational. Gino told me they drop in across some debated properry.

Ok note to self. Don't take boat on the Truckee. Nevertheless wooden self bailing boats are the boat of choice for the biggest of whitewater like the Grand canyon.

Chad btw just listened to you podcast the other day. Great job. Look forward to many more.

Thanks can't wait to get my boat out.

Anyone know of a shuttle for the Lower Yuba?

thanks

Been reading the forum for several years and thought it was about time I joined. Started fly fishing over 45 years ago, fishing with my Dad in Michigan. Moved to CA about 27 years ago and...
