Another fly fishing film is coming to the
State Theatre in Modesto.
"Rivers of a Lost Coast" will be shown on Thursday, April 16 at 7:00 PM. This film's trailer was seen at the Fly Fishing Film Tour last month.
Here is a link to the
trailer online.
Here is a description of the storyline from the film's website:
"At the turn of the 20th Century, a handful of pioneers carried their fly rods into California's remote north coast and gave birth to a culture that would revolutionize their sport. For a select few, steelhead fly fishing became an obsessive pursuit without compromise.
Leading the pack was the mythical, Bill Schaadt, an off-kilter angler famous for his ruthless pursuit to be 'in the fish'. The new endeavor was ruled by a demanding, unspoken code, which made 'breaking in' almost as difficult as 'breaking out'.
By the early 1980s, the Golden State's coastal fisheries found themselves caught in a spiraling decline. As California searched for its disappearing salmon and steelhead, these men foraged for their souls."
The
Tuolumne River Trust is one of the sponsors of the event.
Tickets are $9 and may be purchased at the State Theater and at
Sierra Anglers Fly Shop in Modesto.
