Jim Roberts will be the guest speaker at our club meeting on Thursday, March 4th at 7pm. His topic is "Northern California Lakes and Streams - Tackle, techniques, and tips".
If you’ve heard Jim talk before, or better yet fished with him, you know he’s always full of sound and practical information on both technique and where to fish. If you haven’t heard Jim you’re in for a treat. He always has the latest updates on NorCal waters and also what techniques are working where. Jim will also talk about his hosted annual week-long Montana trips near West Yellowstone.
Jim has held numerous nymphing clinics and steelhead trips for the club over the years, and his talks always have the highest club meeting attendance every year.
For over two decades Jim Roberts has guided, explored and fished the area around Mt. Shasta. He first picked up a fly rod at age 13 and since has spent countless days fishing different waters from Argentina to Alaska. He has accumulated a wide range of experience in the fly fishing industry, from producer of fly fishing videos, fly shop owner, instructor, guide, writer, and manufacturer.
Jim first got his guide license in 1995 and currently guides on the Lower Sacramento River for rainbows, the Trinity River for steelhead, the McCloud for rainbows and browns, and the Klamath for steelhead and salmon. He still enjoys the thrill and excitement of getting somebody into a fish or sharing knowledge with a fellow angler.
Jim is a sought after fly-fishing speaker. With thirty years’ experience and his professional training as a teacher, Jim is able to share his knowledge to help other anglers make it to the next level. His goal both on the water and at a presentation is to make fly fishing instruction as fun and rewarding as possible. After 30 years his passion for chasing any fish with a fly is matched only by his desire to teach others about fly fishing.
