Fly Fishing for Stripers in the American River
with Andy Guibord

Striper fishing has been a long-time obsession for Andy Guibord. And working as a guide out of Kiene’s Fly Shop, he has developed an intimate knowledge of this wonderful game fish.in American River. 

Andy was born in Detroit, Mich., and spent his early childhood chasing butterflies and fishing on his uncle’s lake, where he learned to dangle a wiggly crawler for bluegill and catfish. During 1979, at age 18 he moved to California two months out of high school to attend Yuba College, then moved to Sacramento to earn a master’s degree in the fine arts. 

He began fly fishing during 1986 and was soon hired as a guide by Kiene’s Fly Shop, where he continues to work. Andy has since traveled the world with a fly rod. He has a captain’s license and teaches casting both single- and two-handed rods. His photographs have been published in several fly fishing magazines.
