Sierra Lake Action Sat 10.25.09

thanks for the great photo report yakuza, looks like a beautiful day in the mountains, cameron

thanks for the report, Martin.     Love the pics.  Cant beat the sierras for scenery. 

 Good times in the Sierras. Nice to see you hooked some trouts. 

what lake if you don't mind me asking?

Transition metal, 47 protons, bling bling...   

Too easy in the age of Google...! 

martin...

dave, you and larry should head out there with your bug wands and see whats up.  All I did was topline trolling, no jigging, so they should be willing targets on surface fly.  I trolled a huge broken back bomber looking for Momma Mack, but got no play on that deep diving lure.

Can't wait to do a springtime hookup in this area after thawout.  Its a really beautiful area, lodging nearby, and the fishing's apparently pretty consistent.  I think it might also be a decent destination for altitude open water training, but only in mid summer (brrrrrr).  Racinrob advises that its about to get colder than eskimo weeweedoo, so get out there while you can

Ditto!   

Thanks for the cool report, Yakoooze.   

martin, did you consider staples or fred?  i want to do all three of those lakes but hard to find the time for them.

"47 Proton Lake" was not my first choice, but he-who-shall-remain-nameless  lobbied that we try it before the others.  i think we would have had similar results along that whole 88 corridor, except maybe more traffic at "staples" ().  This summer, time permitting, i'm gonna spend a few days up there exploring.  gorgeous country and worthy of the drive and effort i think.

If you want company, let me know.  I'll clear the schedule in a heartbeat.  I've never actually fished those lakes but have heard nothing but great things about the scenery.  I hear the fishing is pretty good too.

cool. did you see any nice pretty colored leaves on the way?  I am trying to convince my wife its worth the drive because of the leaves.  she can leave me and my kayak at the lake, she can take some pics with her parents.

thanks for the sierra views.  wanted a slice of that fall frenzy but it doesnt look like its going to happen for me. thanks again

Ok since Martin is giving me a hard time for not posting up yet. I will break the silence.

Beautiful t shirt weather and great company. Michelle's friend nailed a nice mac while trolling with her husband. I will post the pics up tonight.

I drove past the Staples to look at Fred. Kinda dark and nasty looking. Muddy. Turned right around and went to Proton and Staples. Fish all over da place.
