Our mission is to enrich women's lives by the introduction of the outdoor
experience through the art and sport of fly fishing.
We teach, we write, we draw- but more than that we bring
a passion for the harmony in nature to all that we do.
What's New
It is mind boggling to realize it is already 2010. 
An update to our website is well past due. Each year speeds by, a carousel of fishing, friends, and adventures. The good life begins anew. Deb and I have fished with old friends and new. We’ve shared streams, music, heartbreaks, new loves, empty nests, and renewed promises. The river always brings us clarity.
We continue to explore more California waters. Spring 2009, found us braving the last cold snap on the East Walker in Bridgeport withTeresa LeBlanc. We kept warm releasing healthy brown trout and feisty rainbows.
In May, Deb and Sally led a group of Becoming An Outdoors-Woman directors to the Merced River in Yosemite National Park. We were thrilled to share the beauty and legend with these women from faraway places.
After Memorial Day, we taught the Casting for Recovery retreat for Ann Profitt, leading the participants on the Carson River. Then on to Montana for our yearly pilgrimage to the Madison River. Before we settled into our camp, Alice Owsley came by. 
The three of us were off to Melrose for a few days on the Big Hole, Ruby, and Beaverhead. Rivers we sampled in 2008.
Back on the Madison, Deb managed to pack in as many fishing days as she could before going home to teach summer school. Sally enjoyed more time with Nancy Garrison, Stavros, Carol Myers, and Julia Horowitz.
Sally came home to travel to the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska. Astonishing beauty, ragingrivers, sweet tributaries are only a surface scratch of the Alaska experience.
Returning from Alaska, Sally headed north to Burney to teach Peg Miskin’s Casting for Recovery retreat at Clear Water Lodge on the Pitt River. Joining the group were Sherrie Feickert and Fran Wieland from New Zealand. They were auditing the retreat in order to conduct the inaugural CFR retreat in New Zealand in 2010. After the retreat, Sherrie, Fran, Teresa LeBlanc, and Sally camped for a week and fished the McCloud, Hat Creek, Baum Lake, and Burney Creek.
Meanwhile, Deb organized her church youth for a fly fishing weekend in Cloverdale.
September, Sally fished the American River with Teresa, Peg and Susan Dotto, and Deb enjoyed a few days on the Yuba.
October usually closes the year of fishing with the BOW program on the Kings River. This year was no exception, but there was also a two week excursion to Sun Valley, Idaho for fall fishing on Silver Creek and the Big Wood. Sally was lucky enough to fish with her brother from another mother, Joel Scheinberg, Alice Owsley, and Carmen and Ed Northen.
Here we are in January. The calendar is filling for another extraordinary year. In February Sally and Peg will fly to New Zealand compliments of Air New Zealand for the CFR retreat in Rotorua. Before the retreat, Sally will conduct a casting workshop arranged by Sherrie Feickert. After the retreat Peg and Sally will fish the Tongariro with Heather and Jen, and then to South Island for 7 days of guided fishing.
