Once again I come to the board for expertise...(maybe someday I can offer some). I'm being shipped off to Gulfport, Mississippi next week as part of a relief team, and while I'll toss a rod in the car just in case, I doubt I'll have much time to fish.

But I'll be in San Francisco the first week of November, and would appreciate a headsup from the board to any guides in the area for either fresh or saltwater. I'll probably be able to get at least a half-day's fishing in, and maybe an entire day.

Next I'll be on the Texas gulf coast in Matagorda county during the first week of December for a hunting trip, but figured I'd take a flyrod along and see what there is to offer. Two years ago I watched the redfish tailing in front of our duck blind. Any suggestions for a flyguide?

As always, thanks in advance!
