About me: 
CSUS Alum-Stingers UP! Studied under the great artist/fly fisherman Fred Gordon. Prefer my own tied flies to any other (as do most who have fished with them). Have fished & hunted all over the west. Make my own custom bamboo fly rods. Can usually be found on the Feather or Yuba rivers with my best friend Charlie.
Favorite quote: 
“There are some who can live without wild things and some who cannot.” “To those devoid of imagination a blank place on the map is a useless waste; to others, the most valuable part.” “Conservation is getting nowhere because it is incompatible with our Abrahamic concept of land. We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.” “Ethical behavior is doing the right thing when no one else is watching- even when doing the wrong thing is legal.” ― Aldo Leopold
