CDC and Elk by Tightlines Productions


A longtime classic from Tightlines Productions, the CDC and Elk, is a must have pattern in every
fly box. This pattern has taken many a fish for Ms. Floatfisher and I. A nice easy tie but effective tie.
Twist a few up today.

Back Channel Mischief


All this crazy warm weather give you the hankering to get the boat out and wish scenes of the summer where here. Scouting out back channels in the early morning looking for rising fish is our favorite thing. Nothing better than a brown fish face poking up and eaten' away.

Anchored up , and making some nice off shoulder casts to hopefully entice them to eat and not, pile cast and drive them away! Oh back channel mischief.
Great daydreaming on a Sunday morning.

Saturday Downtime

Can't believe the terrible weather we are having in Denver, wait,  Denver, we have a few day reprieve  , I think we picked the right place to be fishing this week. Enjoying the early morning coffee with a stroll on the beach. Should be another great day.

SALT, Short and Sandals


Well Ms. Floatfisher and I kicked off the 2015 season with a great day today in the San  Diego Bay.
Does not get any better with short and sandals and shooting heads. As you can see the morning started out with a beautiful sunrise.
 The bay offers a pluthera of great small to medium sized fish, nothing overwhelming, but absolutely
great way to spend the morning casting clouser styler flies. All fishing was done with 6 and 7wt. rods,  matching it with either a 250 or 350 grain shoot head.
 We caught croaker, spotted bass, bay bass, mackerel, just a few more to add to our list of fish caught on the flyrod.
 Fished next to the 32nd Street bridge and the Navy Seal training base, was cool to see the these 
badasses out doing there training as the drill sergeants were hollering ! Was also pretty cool to see the shipyards and all the aircraft carriers, warships and other boats in for work. Fishing right by them.
 Holy Mackerel!

What can I say, another great day for Mr. and Ms. Floatfisher.
