I keep forgetting about it. I could not make last years and with it coming through Fresno, I really want to do this one.

I guess not everything is too far away.
Denny Crane: Ah. You can see them in there. Look at the crystal clear water. My fly went right by his nose. Eat it you picky *.

Dude... I completely forgot about this. I REALLY want to go... maybe we can do a group event? I'm just trying to figure out if the Oxnard or Fresno one would be better for my schedule. Anyone else want to make it a FFA get together?

I really want to see Felt Soul Media's new stuff (Evening Rise)... they are my favorite fly fishing film company right now (and that's including me). I have no problem with admitting when someone else impresses me.

i didn't know les was involved with FSM. what does he do?

I'd like to go. Depends on if I can get the day off or get an 8 hour day. I'll have to see on Monday. I think the new rule is I have to give 2 weeks notice to request and get an 8 hour day.

Craig and other Central Valley folks

I think I could make the Fresno Show (Thursday, Feb 26th) and would be interested in carpooling (I can drive) from Bakersfield.

Craig - As of this moment, I'm planning on going. There's a bit of uncertainty around my work schedule on Thursday but, so far, I'm decling all late afternoon meeting invites so I can head up to Fresno/Clovis in time to make the film showing. My original plan was to take the entire day off so I could fish the Lower Kings before the film showing but I've got some morning meetings that I can't get out of.

Right now my plans are to head up in the afternoon (departing btwn 3PM and 4PM), grabbing a bite to eat up there and then going to the show. I've got plenty of room in my Suburban and would love to have you and others ride along.

Hey guys, I am not sure who all is headed to the FFFT tonight in Fresno, but make sure you write down the address if you are coming. The Film tour website gives the wrong directions. I think, if you click the 'Get Directions' link, it shows directions to Clovis West HS on Fowler Ave.

I am working on better directions today. Look for another post later.

This, I believe, is where the school is:

It is a brand new school, so you will have to ignore the satelite pics.

Thanks, Darrin. I'll be getting in my truck here in a little bit. Your directions will help keep me from getting lost and spending the evening wandering around NE Fresno.
