Rivers of a Lost Coast

I saw this movie last Saturday night in Ashland. I realize it is not about Baja but I was so moved by the film and its message is so powerful that I encourage everyone to see it.

Anyone who values great fishing or just appreciates the beauty and spectacle of anadromous fish should see the footage in this film from the 1950s on rivers like the Russian and San Lorenzo - formerly great steelhead runs now reduced to a faint shadow of what once was. Hopefully the call to protect and restore what we still have will resonate with audiences everywhere.

Special thanks to Will at the Ashland Fly Shop for hosting the event!
