Fall River, California

Fall River is seen as one of the premiere fly fishing destinations in the world but stands out among the others due to its rich history and unique characteristics.

Fall River is the most extensive spring River system in the United States and boasts fish large enough to prove it. This bug conveyor belt has over 3500 fish per mile, an average size of 16", and two of fly fishing's most desired hatches: the Hex and Green Drakes.

  • "Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after."

    Henry David Thoreau

  • "To him, all good things - trout as well as eternal salvation- come by grace, and grace comes by art, and art does not come easy."

    Norman Maclean, from "A River Runs Through It"

  • "Fishing is much more than fish. It is the great occasion when we may return to the fine simplicity of our forefathers."

    Herbert Hoover

  • "A trout is a moment of beauty known only to those who seek it."

    Arnold Gingrich

  • "The traveler fancies he has seen the country. So he has, the outside of it at least; but the angler only sees the inside. The angler only is brought close, face to face with the flower and bird and insect life of the rich riverbanks, the only part of the landscape where the hand of man has never interfered."

    Charles Kingsley

  • “Of all the liars among mankind, the fisherman is the most trustworthy”

    William Sherwood Fox

  • "The worst day on the water beats the best day in the office every time."
