Run and Gun - South Lake and PVR 9/15-16

[Poxy Boggards]

What's Up FNN,

Headed up the 395 for a quick assault on the local trout population.

Hit up South Lake on a rental skiff, and wow the water is way down. Caught and released a bunch of DFG stockers. At roughly mid day, managed this beauty. My personal Best Sierras fish. Weighed in at 4.36 at the end of the day.

Hit up PVR on Sunday morning, and while we caught no large fish, the stockers seemed quite healthy and put up a great fight for their size.

I'll spare you pictures of the stockers and just skip to the best part the South Lake Alpers, check out the Parchers Website in a few days for more details on what I used. Good luck and Tight Lines!

Nice! I was up there on Saturday as well. Fishing off the rocks as my float tube had a small leak, at one point caught a fish on every cast for a good 30-45 minutes.

Yeah, they just had a large stocking of Alpers last Wednesday in preparation for a tourny that was held at Southlake on Friday. Most of the stocking went uncaught, so there should be plenty of Alpers for the taking.

Yeah, I found a pattern on the troll that was stupid wide open, but only the DFG fish wanted to eat that presentation. But I could have caught a fish every few minutes, but I was after a larger model ;)

I bought a tube of UV repair gel at Bob Mariots a couple of years ago, and that stuff works great for those on the water fixes for pin hole leaks. It only cures by being exposed to UV rays, but you can fix a pin hole leak and be back on the water in less than an hour. I've had to use it several times, and it has always worked well.

Glad you had great fishing on shore though!

Thanks pc2Mac, Seal and TM65! That fish made the trip!

[Poxy Boggards]

It was beautiful! It was in the 70's up there at South when it was alomost 100 down the hill in Bishop. There was very little wind, and the breeze kept it nice and cool. Good luck on your trip up there!
