Needle in the Haystack

If you are learning how to swing flies for steelhead it might be nice to get out with someone who is knowledgeable about it.

If you go one day with a guide it can really help you to be doing more right things and less wrong.


Andy Guibord can take you out on the Lower American River from now through spring to show you what the water looks like and how to fish it.

Going up north with Spey guide Jason Hartwick would be good too.

*In my lifetime I have learn much of what I know from getting to fish with really top fly fishers.

**Dec-March is winter run steelhead time on the Lower American River

Andy That's awesome!!

I read your blog last year so I guess you decided not to be "guilty as charged"

Good on ya'

I'm admittedly a fish-photo-monger but I do leave 'em in the water...

unless of course, I kill them ~ <(((><

No, came on a olive and white squirrel streamer.

That was my fist fish after two weeks of nada.

Got it on the Andy's Sculpin, that's awesome. I have been using that fly the last few times that I have gone and managed to get a couple of HPs on it. They seem to like it and the grabs have been pretty good. Way to go.
