I guess i never did a proper introduction. My name Is Jeff, a.k.a (johnnyslowguy, JSG, Slowguy) I grew up in Idyllwild CA, and now i live in San marcos and attend CSUSM. I picked up fly fishing about a year and a half ago. I am almost as green as it gets but i do study this forum and have read many books about fly fishing. I tend to prefer getting off the beaten path and looking for new areas to fish. I am horrible about remembering camaras so bear with me if i dont post pics. I appriciate any and all advice given about location, and tips on fishing. Looking forward to future posts.

Howdy, and welcome. Do you have a float tube? SD area has tons of great warmwater options.
Fishing is the most wonderful thing I do in my life, barring some equally delightful unmentionables.

Welcome aboard, JSG.
A long long time ago, I lived in Vista (graduated from Vista High in '69) and attended Palomar Junior College for two years before heading off to San Jose State. I love fishing the San Diego County beaches and, especially, San Diego Bay. I'll be moving back to San Diego County in a couple of years (retirement is looming) and I'm looking forward to exploring the wonderful warm water opportunities in San Diego County. Lots of lakes and pond to explore. In the old days I fished Lake Wolhford quite a bit. I can't wait to check out Calavera Lake (Carslbad) and see if the bass are as hungry now as they were in the early 70's. There's carp in Lake Henshaw, Lake Morena and probably most every lake in SD County. Lots of opportunities unless you are totally focused on fly fishing trout streams and don't consider fly fishing in other waters for other species. If you've got trout on the mind, you are going to have to drive northward a bit.

hello jsg, it's good to see another young man choosing the path of the flyfishing addict.
pay attention in class and get your degree, you will need a good paying job to pay for your addiction. have you started tying your own flies yet ? tying flies will suck up any spare money that may have been floating around. while i'm on the subject of floating around, get a tube and fins,the bass underground is alive and well in s.d county.
i lived in san marcos for 13 years and now live in oceanside.
