East Side Road Trip coming up.
I'm planning a road trip to the eastern Sierra next week to fish some water I've never fished before. Got nothing against the Owens Valley, I've just never been patient enough to drive past good water to get to other water, so the years have gone by and the Owens, and the Walker and Hot Creek have remained mysteries!
Planning on making Mammoth base camp and making day trips from there. Hot Creek and the Owens are top of list so any pointers there would be appreciated. Any good fishing friendly motel recommendations appreciated also.
Looks like there's lots of access on both stretches of water, but from what I understand anyone in Southern California who owns a fly rod hits these rivers regularly so it gets crowded.
Also planning on hitting Lyell and Dana Forks for half a day on the way home.
You can't buy happiness, but you can buy new fly fishing gear and that usually does the trick.
