Howdy friends and Sierra Drifters. I have some great news to announce about an additional fishery we will be adding to our diverse guide programs.

I will be guiding the NEVADA section of the EastWalkerRiver for 2010. My Nevada Master Guides license has been approved and I will be booking trips as soon as the weather moderates and flow conditions improve. The old Rosachi Ranch is legendary for numbers, and large trout. It was once a privately operated trout ranch and has a reputation for monster rainbows. It is currently managed by the ToiyabeNational Forest. Many of you have experienced the fantastic tail water fishery that the EW in California has to offer-the Nevada section is even better; and it is far less crowded! It is located just 8 easy miles from Bridgeport, CA which has great accommodations for the day, or an extended stay.

Lower in elevation the barbless, zero limit C&R section of the EW in Nevada meanders through the beautiful SmithValley. It is a classic riffle/pool tail water that contains numerous runs offering incredible dry fly opportunities at times. We will be fishing seven miles of gorgeous uncrowded water below the California border. I am very excited about this and hope you can accompany me this season here. This is where many CA/NV guides go to get away, and do not openly speak of it. It really is a wonderful place to fly fish. The spring and fall months can go ballistic here using May flies, midges, and streamers with frequent opportunities to hit the caddis action during the summer.

You will need to obtain a Nevada fishing license and trout stamp. We will be offering half, full or multi-day day guided trips to both the Nevada and Cal sections. We are talking about 15 miles of blue ribbon water near Bridgeport! You gotta fish this at least once. It looks a lot like Montana in my opinion. Please call for bookings and rates. I believe there will be opportunities to begin fishing here in early March. I will begin posting info as soon as conditions warrant.

Be the fly friends...
