Allen Rupp is Rob's new favorite fly tyer. Allen’s Fly On The Water specializes in custom hand tied flies. coldwater, warmwater or saltwater. He ties the flies fish want.

We'll learn about the Near Nuff Crayfish, weed guards, pizza by the slice, and stripers in the city in this informative podcast episode. Be sure to take notes on hook models, scissor brands, and thread models.

What To Expect At The 2024 Maryland Fly Fishing Show

Rob first came across the work of Dr. Jacob Katz in the book Upstream by Langdon Cook. The chapter was titled “Make Way for the Floodplain Fatties”. Cook detailed research by CalTrout that showed salmon grew larger when feeding in flooded rice fields along the Sacramento Delta. Jacob Katz holds a PH.D. in ecology at the UC Davis Center for Watershed Sciences. He currently directs CalTrout’s Central California region where his work focuses on redesigning California’s antiquated water infrastructure. The Nigiri Project mission is to “Scientifically demonstrate that productivity created by shallow inundation of floodplains is foundational to supporting self-sustaining populations of fish and wildlife in the Central Valley.”
Rob and Dr. Katz discuss all things salmon living in an altered environment along the California coast. They talk everything from conservation, geology, and tacos.
