Northern California Fly Fishing

Posted July 16, 2014

I moved to Northern California in August 2011 for a change of scenery, to find a career, and to fish new water. The latter being the most important. After years in SW Washington and about a year in SW Montana, I had already fished some amazing and famous waters. But Nor Cal had been on my radar for a long time. I used to spend my summers here and had fished a few local streams recommended by local fly shops, but hadn’t gotten to fish any of the really famous streams, so I was pretty excited when the opportunity popped...

Battle Ground Lake Bass Fishing

Posted July 15, 2014

This may be surprising to most, but Battle Ground Lake holds some of the biggest bass in the state! For most people this is just a myth, but I have seen them with my own eyes cruising the shores! These big green elusive monsters have been ruling over this lake since way back when. In most cases these fish are dang near impossible to catch. Besides the tight line worm fishermen hooking onto, “the huge fish that snapped their line….”These fish are probably never even hooked. These fish have seen every lure in your resume. They have become so line...

Anatomy of a Quality Steelhead Spinner

Posted July 15, 2014
