[DAVID95670]

DOnt expect others to just give up their hard earned honey holes. Go out and find em.

We stayed out of the gangster glory holes

GOod to hear ya had fun. And great to see someone that actually uses their suv. SOme fish pics would have been cool too.

No fish pictures because the river is a bust in that section terrible fishing only a couple of small 5 inchers

[Frank Roepke]

Sorry for the no fish pics. As usual once I started fishing it was non stop till we left. We did catch several fish, mostly browns and a couple lunkers.
If anyone is interested in a cast and blast in Oct let me know. One requirement is you need a upland bird dog. My GSP is strong on birds, but more dogs the better. Shoot me a PM.

How would you access the lower section at the NV Boarder of the E Carson River

How difficult is the hike down from the Airport to the E Carson River Wild Trout section?

David, the hike from the airport down to the river is about a mile downhill, some of it on a fire road. If you're going in there alone make sure you tell someone where you'll be, even better give them the GPS coordinates. Once you're down there you'll probably not see another soul for the day and there are rattlers, bears and cats as well as lots of places to fall and break a leg.

The biggest problem can be afternoon storms. that section of the Sierras seems to get more thunderstorm activity than any other and I've had to run for cover from very large hail a couple of times, and then you have to deal with lighning strikes.

The hike back out can be tough if its a hot day. Takes about 45 minutes back up the hill. Bring lots of water.

To add to this I would take a SPOT locater along too.
