man do i miss fishing the kern river, water flow has been soooo bad :( used to fly fish there all the time. as for the sierra's, i grew up fishing them. been fishing there for about 18 years, anywhere from 2-5 times a season, and 1-2 times off season chasing those 5-10 browns moving up the upper owens from crowley. ive also horse-backed the back side of mt. whitney for 5 days and caught more golden trout than i could count. i love fishing the west fork for some native trout. i also fish the colorado river for smallies and large mouth, super fun there, i hooked a 47.3 pound cat there last summer, fishing a half of a mack. yeah i have a boat seal, do you? yeah 6:00 in line, lake is barely active with weekend warriors this time of the year. sunday is best for me. if ya dont have a boat i guess we can fish together :( would defeat the purpose of a fish-off i guess lol. cant reveal me to the public though LOL.
