Just finished up two days of clinics on the Truckee River. It's been a while since I've done anything like that. I had a great time, and met some great people. We learned my rigs, knots, flies, and did some streamering, on switches and single handed rods, and how I fish them.

Got a text today from Shane who was in Saturdays clinic. He went out today with the techniques he learned yesterday and stuck some nice fish, stoked!

On the river front, she's in good shape after last weeks Donner Creek rise of biblical proportions. The Truckee is in purrfect shape, and it should be a great week of fishing, hell, month of fishing. For all those that attended the clinic, thanks so much for your interest and patience for letting me teach you the things I have learned over the years. Look out for a Winter tactics clinic coming late Fall.Just finished up two days of clinics on the Truckee River. It's been a while since I've done anything like that.
