The first three emails I receive from west coast anglers will get a Strong Fly for chinook fishing behind a flasher.
These are a Great Lakes item, similar to a hootchy, but made of Mylar. Tough, tough, so they say.

Get up close and personal with D.C. Reid. Raines Broadcasting has filmed several videos of Reid catching river coho at the Eve River on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. They show Reid talking about what fishing means to him, catching and releasing several fine river coho, the Adam and Eve River, and the state of the salmon fishery in 2009.
And they are viewable now on Youtube, which is simpler: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2ZpXrzu9nE. Look for Prendergast on the right side for other west coast river videos.
And then book some fishing time with me, you and your single- or double-handed rod. I’ll pass along as much information as you can hold, from my many decades fly fishing. We can also improve your casting if you wish, with a tip or two that will add 10 to 20 feet onto your current casting distance. I am the only person on the web who does this process. You will have a great day, and be much more knowledgeable, by the end of it.

I am in the process of setting up a series of lectures in BC and Alberta, as well as Washington, Oregon and California for 2010.
If you would like me to include you in my travels, send me an email to: dcreid@catchsalmonbc.com.
I will be giving talks on some of the best places to fly fish in British Columbia – both easy to drive in locations and trips to exotic fly in locations.

Give the angler on your list a special treat with a gift certificate for summer 2010. You would love to fly fish with me. I have done it for decades and am in that phase where I want to pass along what I’ve learned to someone who wants to find things out without having to put all those years in. Or just come for company and an introduction to a Van Isle water you may want to know more about. Any denomination available, contact catchsalmonbc.com or purchase a $100 gift certificate here:
