Upcoming Fishing Outings
Big Sur Steelhead Fishouts
Fishmaster: Tim Loomis
Big Sur Steelhead Fishouts
Fishmaster: Tim Loomis
Wednesday, December 1st and Saturday, December 4th. Meet at first light.
All of the slots are presently taken for both fishout days. Contact Tim Loomis at 426-9248 to check for cancellations.
Where: Andrew Molera State Park, Big Sur, CA.
Gear: 2005 California fishing license and steelhead stamp. Crimped barbs on all your flies are essential as the river will be patrolled by the game warden. We are fishing for steelhead smolts in the 6" to 15" size, so bring lightweight rods/reels. The fish will hit anything. I recommend size 16 to 18 flies in both dry and wet patterns. Dry fly fishing is the norm but we even had success nymphing and dragging wooly buggers. Be sure to bring rain gear, walkie talkies, sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, brimmed hat, water, food, snacks and a camera for the wonderful scenery. Waders and boots.
Transportation: We will caravan down the morning of the fishout, or you can arrange to meet us there. I will call you to arrange car pooling.
