California Fly Shop
(Preview)
I stopped by the california Fly shop earlier this week and it looked like a place that wasn't doing well. The rod racks were almost empty and they seemed to be holding very little stock in everything from reels to nets to fly boxes. Hopefully they are just in a restocking cycle. Can't afford to lose an...

Hex flies at Lake Davis

So if you haven't heard there is now a hex hatch at Lake Davis. This is great news for the locals around Portola, and the fly fisherpeople that like to fish lakes! The funny thing is how the guides are interpreting this.... Why get all wound up about a big lake with a bunch of big planted fish... There a...

Yesterday I noticed something surprising, next time you're up at the Middle Fork Stan below Beardsley keep your eyes opened for this interesting sight. About 1/4 mile down from the spil...

San Francisco's last fly shop closing down
(Preview)
The Orvis store off Union Square is having a closing down sale. Its a shame that a city the size of San Francisco can't support one shop. I work downtown and always enjoyed going in there at lunchtime to talk fishing and pick up a few flies.

It took a cagey old vet, former Cy young winner to bring us up out the funk. Zito was topping out at 85 today. WTF? A 4 hitter at coor's field is damn hard to to. Last shutout there by any memorable pitcher was Roy Oswalt. The G's haven't started a season 0-4 since 1950 or something like that. 2 more and...
