Fishing on the LA River near a freeway underpass doesn’t sound very enticing. But that did not deter our assistant editor Barry Lank from accepting an invitation to go fishing on the river with only a line and a hook.
Elysian Valley — The first catch of the day is a square piece of rubber. Maybe from a car? It is, in any case, the only thing from the river that we don't throw back.

We are down at the edge of the L.A. River, five or six of us, under the 2 Freeway. We are fishing, largely without poles. H., who invited me to this, pitched it to me as a story, saying this was a more personal way to fish with just a line and a hook.
