Re: Mammoth Lakes fun!

Re: fishing spot between Liberty Station park and Corvette diner

The bones do come in there on the flood tides.

There's much better spots to fish as a bank beater, even putting in months worth of time at this spot never yielded anything much compared to other productive areas. Only thing guaranteed is a case of deafness after a couple planes take off.

Re: Eastern Sierra whitewater report

Re: What combo has a more forgiving drag, smooth fight?

But the OP is aiming for LMB, no need to be gentle, just grind them in. With braid, use a thicker hook and break their necks with fast reeling. They are a hard mo...
