Saltwater flyfishing

Save The Date! I’m coming to San Diego…

I’ll be at the San Diego Flyfishers next Tuesday Night, Feb 3rd, doing a presentation of surf fishing for beginners to advanced anglers. I will discuss the history of the shooting head, which was born right here in Northern California. I will have some fun salty Qtips for you, tie a Qs Beach Bug, show how to make DIY flexi-Eyes and demo the “Surf Tango”, a simple approach to casting a sinking, shooting head for more distance. Might even throw in a bimini twist? Hope to see ya there.

The Meeting is located at:
First Tuesday of each month
Starts around 6:30 PM (often earlier social time in the restaurant/bar)
Southwestern Yacht Club
2702 Qualtrough St
San Diego, CA 92106
Phone: (619) 222-0438

Master Class – Shooting Heads

Please join me and MCI Casting instructor Jim Solomon at the Orvis Pasadena Fly Shop on Saturday, February 1st (10:30am to 2:30pm) for a master class on making your own custom shooting heads. We will supply the special running lines and Rio T-11 shooting head for each guest. We will instruct how to connect the two lines for optimal performance. We will cover a few knots, loops and braided loop connections too. (YOU NEED TO BRING AN EMPTY FLY REEL WITH BACKING AND 8WT ROD) We will load up your reel. We will take your new shooting head system and demo the best way to cast them for maximum distance. This is the way we like to fish in California and around the world when we have to go deep or go long off the beach. Great for reaching those hard to get to areas just out of casting range. There are 5 spots left. Please sign up and register here!
