Closing the Sierra's with a Brown Orgy!!!

[FSHNLIC]

Now that I got your attention!!! PissOnMySpace and myself made our annual fall trek up the 395 hunting for some pig brownies... always in hopes for a new PB (currently 24 inches for me, I believe POM's is like 27 in Arkansas) and even a DD!!!! A DD is a pretty far stretch considering I don't fish lakes all that much but I do fish a lot of off the beaten track tributaries. We were up there Tues-Friday....

First Day we hit up a lot of spots along 395 from Lone Pine to Bishop... First spot was good and bad.... hooked up with a nice brownie on the Panther Martin and as I was trying to lift him up some how my freaking pole snapped, my line broke, and the fish took off with my lure in its mouth... Re-tied and hooked up again on a smaller model (15 or 16 inches ) took a pic and released back... Hit up a few other spots for some smaller fish (actually mostly bass)... Got into Big Pine and hit up a spot on the creek that was recently planted and POM and myself had our first fly fishing experience... POM just got a new fly rod and we were successful in putting a slay on... them lil buggers loved the buggers!!! After that we hit up a spot just south of Bishop and got in on some more slay action... got some nice migrating rainbows and browns...

Day 2 we went up to the E Dub in hopes in getting in some piggie browns... unfortunately, the fishing was on the slow side and were only able to land a couple bows.... left there and went back south and low and behold the slay began... Folks it was un frickn real.... that afternoon/evening we got on some of the best brown action in my life... we CNRd a good 20+ Brownies all over 15 inches.... they were stacked up doing their thing.... it was a true Brown Orgy.... it was some serious combat fishing as we hooked into some very LARGE models that fought us only to leave us cry.... we had a good 5-6 that broke us off that could of very well been PB... but what fun!!!

Day 3 we had to go back ... it was a lil slower but we still managed at least another 10 with a couple more break-off's.... we got a lil more fly fishing in at Crowley down by Crooked Creek and got quite a few, unfortunately they were on the small side

Day 4 went up to Intake 2, however, that was on the slow side as well, so we went back down the hill and fished a lot of the same places on the way home... All and all it was a great trip... I'll let the pic's do the talking.... To Tight Lines and Full Tails!!!

No sh*t....I almost asked you guys if you were on the fishing network when you showed me these pics at Wier Pond on Friday, the pics look even better on my monitor, my biggest ended up being a 17in Alpers after I switched from fly back to mini-jig in the creek, did you do any good on South Lake ? I heard they were getting some 3lbers near the dam. Awesome post and trip, you definately covered alot of water !!!
