Hello,

I'm Rich, a new member here! Just thought I'd check in with some vital statistics. Fly fishing now for I guess 7-8 years, I live in North Orange County, and I generally do most of my fly fishing in the Eastern Sierra region, with the lower Owens and Bishop Creek drainage my main focus. I'll be heading up for a camping trip next week Wednesday night with one of my sons, and doing a half day trip on Crowley. Hope to interact with some friendly and knowledgeable folks on here!

Thank you both, gentlemen. That was a good read on the etiquette of the site, and I'll make sure to keep it all in mind during my posts!

Oh most definitely! Pictures really do help to tell the tale. I generally try to make my posts go in chronological order, with a picture/group of pictures for each small chapter. I'll be heading up for my annual camping trip to the Bishop creek drainage next Wednesday night, so once I'm home I'll get a picture report up!
