"TIP OF AN ICEBERG - MAGDALENA BAY, MEXICO" WITH KIM ZETTERBERG Join Kim Zetterberg for an introduction to the possibilities for fishing in a fishery virtually untouched and unexplored by flyfishers. About Kim - After catching his first trout on a fly at age 13, it was clear that the fish wasn’t the only one who’d been hooked! Kim spent the rest of his teenage summers studying Catskill fly-fishing under the tutelage of the likes of Ernest Schweibert, Joe Brooks, Harry Darbee, and others who generously shared their knowledge and love of the sport with him. When not engaged fishing the up-state trout streams, Kim found the bluefish and striped bass in New York saltwater more than willing to test a battered Cortland fiberglass 8-weight, helping pioneer saltwater fly-fishing on Long Island , still in it’s infancy. College brought him to the Rocky Mountains and waters beyond to the west by 1972, and Air Force assignments later on, to fishing destinations even further away. Armed with a wealth of experience and knowledge from fly-fishing around the world, Kim now resides in San Clemente, California, where he continues to learn about the finer points of our sport, while sharing his enthusiasm and that “know-how” with others. Reservations not required, however to reserve a seat please call (714) 525-1827.
