Default something about flyfishing

I've found some of the best fly fishing in California is in the Eastern
Sierras. There are a lot of beautiful streams and lakes, but you have to
hike in to get to them.






So as to not give there rest of the world the wrong impression.
California contains some of Nature's very best efforts, including fishing
holes. But, in early December it's hard to point to any fishing that I
thought might appeal to rw.


I don't want to give the wrong impression, either. I'm not intending to
dis' California fishing. It just that I've never experienced good
flyfishing in California, and not entirely from lack of trying. I'm not
saying it doesn't exist, but I will say that you'll at least have to
drive a pretty long way from the Bay Area. Since I live in the Rocky
Mountain West in late winter, spring, summer, and most of fall, and
since I usually take a tropical vacation in the winter that includes
sal****er fishing and one major trip in the summer to somewhere like
Alaska, I've decided to give it a rest when I'm in California.
