So what’s this got to do with music or fishing? Nothing, really, but had to have a shot of the kids and grandkids! Taken summer of 22, Napa Valley, CA.

The river boasts a stellar run of May/June shad. It’s always a treat to spend a few hours battling these strong, sea-run fish.


This was taken on the Solstice, 2018. I floated with Ben Rinker at we were saturated with soft, summer showers. It only lasted about ten minutes, and the benefit was that amazing double rainbow. A lovely section of river.
