THIS WEB SITE'S PURPOSE, IS TO SHARE WITH THE VIEWERS, NOT ONLY MY EXPERIENCES FISHING VARIOUS PLACES IN NORTH AMERICA AND ELSEWHERE. BUT TO ALSO SHARE WITH YOU, MY FISHING COMPANIONS, THE WATERS WE FISH AND THEIR BEAUTY. INCLUDED ALSO, WILL BE A LITTLE HUMOR AND FISHING PHILOSOPHY.

MOST OF THE MORE EXTENSIVE TRIPS WILL HAVE THEIR OWN DEDICATED PAGES, WHILE MANY OF THE SHORTER LOCAL TRIPS WILL BE COMBINED ON A SINGLE PAGE. EACH WILL BE GROUPED BY YEAR. YOU MAY EASILY FOLLOW FROM PAGE TO PAGE WITH THE LINKS AT THE BOTTOM OF EACH PAGE, OR YOU MAY USE THE NEW SITE MAP BELOW.

I HOPE YOU ENJOY VIEWING, AND IF YOU ARE A FISHERMAN, MAYBE WE WILL FISH TOGETHER SOMEDAY. IF YOU ARE NOT YET A FISHERMAN, MAYBE THIS WILL STIMULATE YOU TO GIVE IT A TRY.

I AM A MEMBER OF THE DIABLO VALLEY FLY FISHERMEN, AND PARTICIPATE IN MANY OF THE CLUBS ACTIVITIES. THESE ACTIVITIES INCLUDE FISHING OUTINGS TO WATERS IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AS WELL AS OTHER SOCIAL AND EDUCATIONAL EVENTS. ANYONE INTERESTED IN LEARNING MORE ABOUT OUR CLUB MAY CONTACT ME OR THE CLUB DIRECT .(SEE LINKS AT BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE)

THE FOLLOWING, COMES FROM A FATHERS DAY CARD GIVEN TO ME BY MY GRANDDAUGHTER RACHEL. I THINK IT IS TOO ACCURATE AND FUNNY NOT TO SHARE.

"GIVE A MAN A FISH, AND HE'LL EAT FOR A DAY.

TEACH A MAN TO FISH, AND HE'LL SPEND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON FISHING GEAR AND TACKLE,

SPEND COUNTLESS HOURS WAITING TO CATCH A FEW PATHETIC FISH , AND BORE EVERYBODY HE KNOWS

WITH TIRESOME STORIES ABOUT THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY"

AS THIS SITE BUILDS, IT HAS BECOME LESS EASY TO MANEUVER THROUGH ALL THE PAGES, SO I HAVE PUT TOGETHER THIS SITE MAP TO MAKE NAVIGATION EASIER, ESPECIALLY IF ONE IS LOOKING FOR A SPECIFIC LOCATION OR JOURNAL.
