Pinecrest 8/24-28

Took the camper and the kayaks for a getaway. Hard thunderstorm Sunday when we arrived. Trolled needled fish and small Rapala Monday and Wednesday. Tuesday overcast and light rain, so stayed off the water. I suck at trout fishing I guess. Marked lots of fish from 25’ to bottom. For zero bites. Probably should have bought some worms. Thought I had some gulp worms, but not in fishing bag. Still a good time, big soft serve cones for $6 at Marina. Fresh fudge of multiple varieties at Strawberry store.

Sounds like a fun trip, even if no fish.  I'm convinced trout are among the pickiest fish out there - especially in the summer. 

On the brightside, you were at one of my favorite spots on earth, and I was at work. Kudos to you for getting out there snd enjoying thst beautiful spot.

For years we went to Donner and also the lakes basin.   Wife says, why didn’t we go here?  Closer and beautiful.
