Just plopped down $54 for a California license and my 'local water' reopens
tomorrow. I went down and took a look, baetis hatching ( no rises,
however) and nice low water conditions with decent clarity. I'll start
the New Year fishing wet flies a couple miles from here, should be pretty
decent ( if cold, foggy and damp ). Right after the first of the year is
the best time on the various CA valley trout streams since they are managed
as irrigation canals that happen to contain fish. After irrigation
season starts the flows are too high for reasonable FFing.

much value from his Ca license as from the others he buys )
