Fly-fishing opportunities in close-to-home California waters will highlight Conclave ‘90, the annual festival sponsored by the Federation of Fly Fishers April 7-8 at Airport Marina Hotel in Los Angeles.

More than 3,000 beginning, novice and expert fly-fishers are expected at “California Fly-Fishing Adventures,” the largest fly-fishing-only show in the United States, according to co-chairmen Dick Lange and Milt Huber.

Produced by volunteer members of the FFF, the not-for-profit exposition will benefit Southern California conservation projects.
