Nice to meet you all. Thanks for having me here with ya.

I'm Dewi (yes that's my real name - pronounced - DO-WE). 32 year old female born and raised here in Southern California, and fishing all my life. Currently living in Tehachapi, CA here in the mountains!!!

I usually fish for trout, mostly because everywhere I go, that is usually what is most plentiful, with the occasional catifish or whatever else bites....I am a freshwater girl, but I do love saltwater fishing also. Grew up with my grandpa on his boat and in his garage making his flies and rods, and also tending to his earthworm garden...

I just love to fish, it is my therapy, my meditation, and I usually always eat what I catch.....Do not mind C&R's as I like to call them, just not for me, unless they are not keeper size....but I just don't like to be chastised for keeping them, lol!!

I grew up fishing Fin and Feather, Apollo Park, The Ducts in the Antelope Valley area, Brite Lake, Lake Nacimento, Bridgeport, Stallion Springs, Lake Elizabeth, Lake Isabella, and the Bishop and Lone Pine areas......My mother is an avid 'Reel Woman' also, so we have kinda just always fished for fun since I was small......

When I moved away from the A.V to Las Vegas , I branched out to Utah and Colorado with friends to fish and let me tell you, that was amazing, but the best must have been Northern Cali fishing in late fall around Sacramento, and them Salmon - AWESOME!!!

These days, when I can get away, for I have an Autistic son, I usually stay closer to home and fish Brite Lake, Isabella, Pyramid, Ming, Castaic and an occasional Duct trip......

Oh boy I could go on and on about myself, but you would probably all be bored, if you want to know more, just ask, I am pretty versatile and like many things, or you can go to my profile here and go to my networking site listed to learn more...not too many fishing pics, as it seems we never had a camera, now I never leave home without one, but my friend has the best shots of his East Coast Jersey Stripers, I will be adding those pics back on to my site soon....

Again, I am happy to be here, and hope to talk to you all real soon :D

Welcome aboard Dewi....wait hold on, you took 3 months to inroduce yourself! :lol:

I like your choice of favorite lakes...Isabella and Bishop area both hold special memories for me. Thanks for sharing so much about yourself, I'd bet you would be a great person to have around the campfire during story telling time! Hope to fish with you someday, I look forward to some fishing reports from you soon!

Once again welcome too FNN....have a great 2008!

Welcome Dewi - There's a few of us gals who frequent Irvine Lake. Maybe sometime if you ever get down this way we'll get to fish with you.
