Planning a bachelor party. Fly fishing/gambling? 15 Years, 5 Months ago  
hey friends
my buddy is getting married in July. For his bachelor party he wants to do his two favorite things; fly fishing and gambling.

Can anyone one think of some indian casinos that are in close proximity to good fly waters. I'm not much of a casino guy so i'm having trouble figuring this one out. I think we'd prefer not to camp, and just be able to get up at the lodge and take a short drive to go fishing.

Why not Reno? With all of this expected rain, the Truckee should be prime. 30 min. drive. Indian casinos kind of suck, as they do not comp. drinks and several do not serve drinks at all. Bet you could find a good deal on a cabin in Truckee or North Shore and either drive to the casinos or drive to the river (if you stay in N. Shore)

Other options: S. Lake Tahoe--30 minutes to E. Carson which should also be prime.

Set on Indian Casino? There is one down in Bishop (Paiute Palace) and I usually donate a few bucks when I fish the area. Hot creek, the lakes, and a few small streams should be good at that time of year. Winn River in Redding is about 2 minutes from the L. Sac and if you have a drift boat this could be an option. Maybe my bias, but I find the Reno/Tahoe casinos much more enjoyable.

I met some reps from Rolling Hills Casino in Corning. It's a place where one could gamble, blast, cast, hit a few golf balls.

There is a private lake that has trout and stripers in it.

Here is the webpage for activities.

What are you? Nuts? This is a bachelor party....oh, I see, he's a wuss and afraid his intended would find out he had a wild party. But then again he could be partied out. Dang, it's hard getting old and forgetting that the "new" generations have evolved into something unrecognizeable.

Re:Planning a bachelor party. Sawmill Lake? 15 Years, 5 Months ago  
I'd suggest Sawmill Lake in Tahoe...close to gambling and the lake can be rented for your exclusive use..full of god-sized rainbows.

Call Joe cerniglia @ 530-582-5393. www.sawmilllakeflyfishing.com

I love talking fly-fishing. So, if you want some info on fly angling my "home waters" in the Truckee area, do not hesitate to contact me off the board; whether by phone (530-587-7333) or e-mail (cyberfly@cyberfly.com). Please be patient relative to a quick reply; most especially during May-October.

My latest crusade is limiting undo fly fishing guide impact on the Little Truckee River. This small venue is being abused my commericial guiding interests. Consequently the fishery is being abused, IMO, most especially by guides to the detriment of the fishery. Moderation is the key in usage.

During the last two seasons I've diplomatically mentioned to many guides that they should coordinate with others guides so that they minimize impact...it has been to no avail. Some entities are more guilty than others; weather independent or "stabled" (outfitter or fly shop). So I've just started taking this public. Any civil suggestions/comments on limiting guide impact would be appreciated.

For my complete bio go to www.cyberlfy.com; then click-on my photo.



NOW FOR THE SPAM!!

Simply, I'm a fly fishing junkie. In 1984, in order to justify my addiction, I started Thy Rod & Staff in Truckee; the longest existing, fly fishing guide service in the Tahoe area and possibly one of the longest in California. I'm an independent; so the "buck stops with me". I tailor trips to the specific desires and skill levels of the client; no "my way or the highway" guiding.

Simply, experience counts folks! 2009 will be my 26th year exclusively as a professional fly fishing guide in Truckee. As long as I enjoying the interaction with other passionate fly anglers and/or those new to the sport; my service will continue into the future. I also "host" fly fishing club outings.

Encouraged by clients & family I started the Reel School of Fly Fishing in 1996. There are scheduled one & two-day clinics through-out the "general" season; entailing a maximum 3-to-1 attendee-to-instructor ratio. Now, since the season if open year-round; I have a scheduled snow-shoe/fly fishing group-outing during March.

Again in 2010 I will be "hosting" two groups at a private lodge in Chilean Patagonia; located 2+hours from Coyhaique, Chile. The lodge accommodates six (6) fly anglers only. It is located in an isolated river valley (40 minute jet-boat ride down river...no roads). From my past experience in this area, I'm guessing it is like Montana was 50-60 years ago....far-far-away from the "real world". Inquire for specifics, I will be going there every year. I've arranged with the lodge for some incredible pricing for two "hosted" weeks in 2010. Also I can arrange other stays and special pricing...contact me.

I second Frank's recommendation. Have fished it several times and it is a hoot. Can arrive late after the wild party and the lake will still be all yours! Some nice rainbows to boot, and they can be challenging.

There's always Topaz. I know lots of folks that swear by the casino, although I've never had much luck there. The hotel is pretty basic lodging you might find along the road anywhere, but it's not an Indian casino and the drive to the waters of Bridgeport or Markleeville are pretty easy when there's no snow or wildfires.

Thanks for all the tips guys. I'm looking into topaz and the sawmill lake idea. BTW sawmill lake looks badass! Too bad I'm horrible at stillwater fly fishing.

If anyone thinks of anything else let me know.
