Sweet ! I keep meaning to check out this area.
The smiley face was my attempt at humor :) Clickbait or not, I'm guessing a lot of folks on this board look forward to seeing your posts, myself included.
Regarding my username -- when I was a...
I think the thread title qualifies as "clickbait" :) but super nice shots !
I have no inside information. The closure was initially through September 17th, and could be extended. Remember last season ...
Personally I would not bet on the closures being lifted until it...
I was curious about the Natureboy design, and looked at his website. Just received a pair of them, a 4" and 8" in the mail. Looks good and durable. Will probably use the 4" model for nippers or...
The national parks are still open (except Lassen).
Nope, that lake is about 900' higher than Evolution.

Good to hear your cabin got spared, John. A friend of a friend went through something similar recently, though in a different area (somewhat NE of Tahoe, I believe), on his retirement property. ...
Looks like the USFS is closing all the California national forests for two weeks, through September 17th. If this year ends up like the last one that could be a while...
I managed to get a few...
As of Tuesday, August 31st all national forests in California will be closed for two weeks. It isn't just the northern forests anymore. Announcement was just made today, starting to circulate on...
An "iron ranger" is basically a hollow metal pylon with a slot, usually meant for collecting use fees. You have probably seen them at parks and campgrounds, among other places. Just google "iron...
Super photos !
I don't know of any 100% complete and accurate source. The Eastern Sierra guide posted above is pretty helpful. I also use flyfishthesierra dot com, but realize that the author has probably not...
Yes, I've read that southern California surf is more gentle. I actually have spent some time down there, long before I started fishing, mostly work-related. Let's just say that SoCal is not for me...
Another big bucketmouth !
Altitude can be tougher on some than others, no question. I think it gets rougher with age, at least it has for me. In some situations I need to use diamox / acetazolamide (have to refresh my...
Oh no John ! Hope the hip issue resolves itself.
I have a bunch of hardware in my spine (screws, rods, and a plate), due to some old injuries and trauma, plus a variety of old broken bones. I do...
Wow, that fish is l a r g e.
I've noticed that a nice ripple on the water can tend to embolden trout into whacking hoppers and the like. Not so much with bass. I wonder if it is a difference in...

It was another warm night, though a bit cooler. I got an early start, and headed down a short bit to another lake.
...
I headed out this past weekend for a westside Sierra destination that was burned by the Creek fire last summer, and has only recently reopened. The forecast was calling for hot weather across the...
What a beauty !
I hear you about that John, though I have never been a fan of campfires; that is what I have down jackets and sleeping bags for :). As it gets colder in the high country the lack of a stove becomes...
