Summary

[Interview starts at 45:51]

This week's podcast was recorded prior to Covid 19 but I sat on it for awhile because it was about saltwater fly fishing in the San Francisco Bay area and I wanted to wait until sheltering at home restrictions were eased a bit and people could get out to try these ideas. Sarah Landstrom of Lost Coast Outfitters regularly leads trips for this accessible and interesting urban fishing, and she has some great tips, and even suggestions for locations to try.

In the Fly Box this week, we have a number of interesting questions--plus a great e-mail from a listener on how he successfully uses two-handed rods for nymphing in Alaska. Some of the questions this week are:

Do you think planning a trip with a guide will help me learn new skills?
What is the best way to go about asking for permission to fish on private land?
I don't have much time to fish. How can I streamline things and become more efficient so I don't spend all my time rigging and tying knots?
Do you think a surgeon's knot is visible to fish?
Where on my leader do I put my indicator?
Why can I hook trout on dry flies?
What locations, flies, and weather conditions are best for night fishing?
Should I use mothballs in my fly tying materials?
Should I microwave my fly-tying materials?

0:00.0	You're going to be. Hi and this is your host Tom Rosenberg and in this week's show I have a podcast
0:20.0	this is your host Tom Rosenbauer and in this week's show I have a podcast that was recorded
0:27.6	pre-COVID. It's about surf fishing, flyrod surf fishing in the Bay Area of San Francisco with
0:36.7	Sarah Landstrom of Lost Coast Outfitters and I didn't run it right away because you know people were still cooped up in
0:47.4	their homes and sheltering sheltering in place but now that people are a little bit more out and about still
0:55.8	with care, but people are out in enjoying the outdoors. I figured it would be a good
1:00.2	time to bring this podcast to you. So I hope you enjoy my my interview with
1:07.1	Sarah. It's a topic that I know absolutely nothing about so it was fascinating to me and if you do live on the west coast and you want to try some
1:17.2	saltwater fishing these techniques and ideas would not be just appropriate to the Bay Area but all along the coast.
1:27.6	All right, let's get into the flybox. And you can send a flybox question if you want. You can send an email to podcast at Orvis.com and you can either put your
1:49.7	question into the body of an email or you can attach a voice file that you record on your
1:57.5	phone and if I can answer your question and I haven't answered it 10 times before in the past.
2:05.0	I'll try to read it on the air.
2:07.0	You know, a lot of times I get the same question over and over again.
2:10.0	And sometimes it's stated in a slightly different way.
2:14.5	So I apologize to those of you who have been listening for many, many years
2:20.0	that you keep hearing the answer to the same question but it's obvious that
2:23.4	that these are these are things that are important to people and you know they
2:29.3	may not have listened to all the podcasts so if I can explain it a little bit
2:34.0	different way I do I do use these same questions again to make maybe a little bit
2:40.4	different point and I think you'll see some of those in or you'll hear
2:44.7	some of those in this podcast. By the way I want to thank everybody that's been
