Hey Guys, I work at Leland Fly Fishing Ranch in Sonoma and wanted to share the video with you. The same Leland as in the shop in San Francisco. Very cool place! Awesome concept. We'll be focusing on Steelhead fishing as the season heats up, or cools down, as it were. Have some plans in the works for seminar...

The man in the gray suit is in the house! Check this out (courtesy of the Drake): A Great White shark, about 6-feet long and estimated at 150-pounds, was caught and released by a fly-fisherman off La Jolla , Calif, on Friday. ( 7/17/09 ) It is believed to be the first Great White ever taken off the Californ...
Returned today from a 10 day adventure to the Mammoth lakes area. The dry fly fishing was of nearly epic proportions. Started off on McGee creek wich is very near the upper owens and really is just a mini version of the owens at benton crossing, The fishing there was one of the best days i have ever had flyf...
Went to Yellowstone last week and hooked up on some browns. Nice peaceful part of the river next to the madison campground. Last couple of pictures are at the Green River at the flaming river gorge.
Well, over the 4th I spent some time on the NF yuba and my wife came along for a few hours. The whole time she was paranoid of mountain lions, bears, rattlers, etc. Any one out there ever had an "encounter with nature"? Any of you bring along protection of any kind? A machete, Rambo knife, m...
Here are a few pics from Goodyear creek and the Truckee. The only thing I caught on the Truckee were some of those planters, so no pictures. Did see this bear upstream from the Glenshire bridge. Pretty cool he was heading for a fellow fly fisher right on the trail, so I started making some noise and h...
Was checking out the Topo's, has anyone tried any of the tributaries to the Stanislaus such as Skull Creek, Griswold Creek, Big or Little Rattlesnake Creek, Soap Creek, Knight Creek? Do they have enough water to make it worth the trip?
Anyone have any good locations for the truckee. Im going there tomorrow for the whole weekend. Any tips on locations on the river would be great. Especially for some brownies.
Fished Putah for the first time today. Beautiful and fun place to fish. Didn't see anybody else out there. I have no idea where the good spots are so I spent a lot of the day exploring. Caught a lot of fish but most were under 6 inches. Here's a pic of my biggest one. Impressive huh? Well, I'm sure I'll b...

I've suddenly found myself with a free weekend so I'm planning on grabbing the fly rod and heading up to North Fork Stan. Has anyone been to Sand Flat Campground? Was considering camping there and fishing the stan and maybe hiking up Highland Creek a ways. Not sure if this creek is messed up by Spice...
Got breakfast served to me to start my day, then headed up to the Yuba to see what was shaking. Started at the 20 bridge, and moved upstream. Nymphed at first, landing a few nice fish, but atypically small (12-14 inches). Saw a fish rise, so I put on a caddis pattern. Proceeded to catch 20-30 9-14 inch f...
I'm sure it takes some effort to get things organized, but any speculation as to another member outing much like the Yuba outing on private waters? I'd be happy going there again, but I'm sure there are many other private waters around that could be possibilities. -Jon
Vince put his best dance steps to use on the North Fork Yuba yesterday. It is noton the newsracks yet. Fortunately, I was able to get this new step on film!!! Needless to say, he is a liitle more damp in the second picture.
Hey guys,I haven't posted in a long long time, but I've been fishin a lot. I'm headin up to my aunt's for a week ,and she lives right by tragedy springs RD, on Hwy 88 (2 miles from kit carson lodge). For flies, I'm guessing traditional dry fly at night, w/ small nymphs for the day time on 18 inches of tipp...
Hello all, its been a while! I went Backpacking/Camping last weekend in the Mokelumne Wilderness near Round Top Peak and camped at Fourth Of July lake. It was a thrill to catch these small Brook trout on a fly -- I must have caught 50 fish(To hand) in a 3 hr period. This was fishing at its finest to me since I...
I have one gently used Reddington Blackfoot river fly vest for sale. I paid 40 for it at AFF but will sell it for 20. I am also open to a trade for a "beginner" fly rod. I want to teach my nephew. The rod doesn't have to be anything special, walmart, big 5, doesn't matter as long as it's a graphite 5w...
