First of all, welcome to the Left Coast!

Friday: too damn cold, Owens river not putting out.
Saturday: Driftboat on the Owens (7 mile drift in 1.25 straight line
distance in Bishop), partner lands many fish, I don't land one.

I had a similar experience a couple of weeks ago on the Owens. The
gentleman I was fishing with landed *many* more fish than I did, and this
was despite his giving me the prime casting spots. Aaarrrgghh! (But thanks,
Danl). And I second your opinion about Gary being a good guide.

Best thing about California: Baja-style Mexican food (taquitos, chimi w/
1
1/2 lbs of stripped beef, Spanish rice, frijoles, guac, dos equis $8.50
Amerikun)
Worst thing about California: They've cornered the market on good Mexican
food and won't let it out of state.

Don't you see? We're going to license the stuff to the other states and
close the budget deficit that way. And people say we're screwballs...
Anyway, I hope your trip was a good one, and come again in a warmer month
when you can get into the Sierra high country to chase goldens!

Cheers,
Bill
