I'm a native Angeleno who grew up fishing at Echo Park Lake. I now
live up on Sargent Court, work at the LA Times, have written about
flyfishing the lake and around California for the paper's defunct
Outdoors Section, taught Steve Lopez how to fish and do some theatre
for art's sake. I am a professional flyfishing guide and instructor.

I'm donating a plate of personally tied flies from feathers from birds
in the Echo Park area: the ducks and geese from the lake, parrot
feathers from the bird shop on Glendale (next to Pizza Loca and Tacos
Mexico). All the flies were tied by me, using as many natural
materials as possible. The names of the flies are inspired by Echo
Park: 'The Lady of the Lake,' 'Aimee's Impulse,' 'Glendale Red Car,'
etc.
