Capt. Ben Thompson spends more days guiding the Lower Yuba River than any other guide right now and has been on the river this entire winter and early spring so there is no better person to give an update and forecast for the coming spring and summer of one of Californias most popular, challenging, and productive tailwaters.

Hogan welcomes Adam Andreini of www.fishadam.com to come on the show and talk about guiding and fishing for Dinosaurs aka Green and White Sturgeon. Adam spends all year as a fishing guide for Stripers, Salmon, Shad, Trout, and Sturgeon on the Lower Sacramento River as WELL as hosting Eco Tours and has been a friend of Hogans for years. While Sturgeon are not top of any fly angler's list they are one of the coolest and most interesting fish in the river that fly anglers never fish for... with fly rods that is. Learn about these fish from and how they interact and live in the Sacramento River.

Hogan and James sit down and talk about the state of Nor Cal water storage as well as how the current winter is setting us up for the coming season. Then they get into the state and future of our salmon fisheries. While salmon are not always high on fly angler's list of species they are important to the health of many of our more popular fisheries ie. Trout and Steelhead. As well as being the most politically powerful fish in that the economic impact and angler participation is the highest among fish of concern in our state.

Macala is one of the most talented young photographers in fly fishing. If you look at her photos and the places she has traveled to take them you would think she is a salty veteran. She grew up on the Texas Coast with her twin brother and father who are avid fly fishermen and instead of picking up a rod at a young age she picked up a camera and has never looked back. Honestly, she has never even caught a fish on a fly rod...though she is trying. Unlike many fly fishing photographers who put down the fly rod and pick up the camera she never picked up a rod until recently but has the passion of love of the sport to convey it in ways that many of us who come from the angling perspective never would have thought of. Enjoy.
