Los Angeles River flyfishing

Conservation

AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN

Carping For Change on the L.A. River

In Los Angeles’ concrete jungle of freeways, industrial sites, abandoned lots and graffiti scribed walls there is a ribbon of water that wants to become a living, breathing river. Author, artist, landscape architect and fly angler Daniel Lopez knows the L.A. River better than anyone and is working to bring the river back. It is a monumental effort and in the meantime, there are—believe it or not—plenty of carp to chase in the concrete canyon of downtown Los Angeles.
