I want to give a shout out to my buddy Dan Zambrano who is the one responsible for getting me into Fly Fishing in the first place. He shares my crazy passion for Fly Fishing Urban Water, and has fished water with me that one would take the time of day to even look at. My two younger brothers Steven and Adam have dubbed him the “Fishing Guru”, and Dan and I are hoping to be coming out with a series of “Southern California Urban Fishing” guide books. So keep an eye out!

Justin Scheck a reporter at the Wall Street Journal’s online paper published an article about “brownlining” and gives me a plug by quoting me in the article. Check it out at “On Fly Casting’s Urban Frontier, the Fish Are Big, the Water’s Dirty” .

This morning I was going to get up early in the morning, and head out to San Antonio Creek below Mount Baldy. My alarm went off, but my legs did not feel like getting up so I hit the snooze and woke up at 9:00 a.m. When I got up I decided to head over to Mile Square Park down the street from my place, and do a little Urban Trout Fishing since the DFG stocked the lake the night before. I only ended up catching one little Rainbow on a Royal Coachman Fly, but I did meet up with one of the guys who follows this blog Angel who was out fishing with his brother Chris. We talked for a little, and I then I decided to head back, it was cold and the fishing was slow. It’s so cool to be out fishing and meet you guys that are commenting on this blog, thanks for all that you guys contribute!!! Remember only take what you are going to eat throw the rest back and Please dont litter. Here are some pics that I snapped of Angel and Chris.

Lefty’s Deceiver to me is the Woolly Bugger of Saltwater fishing. This fly has caught so many different kinds of fish since the legendary Lefty Kreh designed it, I could not even list them all. If you are at all serious about Salt Water Fly Fishing, then you better have at least a half dozen of these in your fly box. Buy a couple today at Orvis.
