It was quite a dedication this past weekend for the historic Long Beach Casting Club in Southern California. I was very honored to take a very small part in this monumental achievement. There are not many fly fishing clubs in the west that have turned 100 years old. Ever since I came to California back in the late 70s, I can remember visiting this club to watch the amazing casting champions compete from around the world in trout accuracy games, distance casting, and bass plug accuracy. Being part of this celebration was very special for me, kudos to all at The Long Beach Casting Club for upholding its great fly fishing history and putting on such a classy event. Here’s to the next 100 years! –Al Q
