are you sight fishing? i was up there today and didnt see a single fish (granted its december)
@makethecast 10 ай бұрын
They’re really good at hiding/blending into the surroundings so most of the time I never see them. But I just try to fish the nicer looking runs, riffles, or pools that might hold fish. However I’ve heard that the stream has been wiped out recently, probably from flash flooding. Haven’t been back there since earlier this year so not sure what it looks like. Might need some time to recover again though.
@samshepperrd 11 ай бұрын
Let'm go. A stream like that can get fished out a lot faster than many think. And counter to what many think, keeping the big ones is the fastest way to deplete wild fish. Because only the larger fish spawn. No spawning, no wild, stream native fish. Best to reserve fresh caught trout for very special occasions - if at all. Most dedicated trout fishermen eventually get to the point of this realization. Better to have a stream full of trout than a belly full of trout you'll never see again. Sometimes if you're fishing wet flies or nymphs, it can be better to cast from upstream. That way the line isn't so much in the fish's sight. And the "plop" isn't right over them. And from upstream, it's easier to add some squirming action to the nymph fly. Of course you may have to kneel low and even duck down to keep out of their sight.

@@markskibo5159 Looks like a cutt, just without the typical red slash underneath the lower jaw! I've read somewhere that there was a special strain of trout from the upper south fork of the Santa Ana river that resembled the cutthroat, but thought to be extinct now, the last specimen being caught in the early 1900's. Think it was named the San Gorgonio trout.

@makethecast Жыл бұрын
What’s so hard about going out and exploring for yourself? It’s all part of the experience of fishing. I’d rather show people that spots like this exist and encourage them to get out and experience it for themselves. And if they do manage to find it then that’s the reward for their dedication. If I can find spots like this myself then so can you. It’s really not that hard. People nowadays just want it easy and rather have things handed down to them. To me THAT ruins the sport of fishing. If anyone really wants to know that bad all you have to do is be cool and send me a private message, I probably would’ve told you depending on the type of person you are. Some social skills can get you pretty far.

Successful anglers have learned that it is best to position yourself above and to one side of the trout. Then make a cast with a good bit of slack, allowing the fly to approach first.

Tried to send a message to Josh on Instagram went to the East Fork today. Did you go to the top parking lot? And...when you did, did you go the right, facing the mountains on the trail past the locked gate? Reason I'm asking I went to the left and went down the hill next to the outhouse, and it was quite a hike to the river...and I did not see any of the signs Josh posted on the video. Also, was this video made before the Bobcat fires or afterward? Let me know...I got skunked and did not get any bites using size 22 bead heads and the river flowed very, very fast. Thanks for any input about which way you left the parking area and I do not even know if you went as far up to the parking area as well.
@makethecast Жыл бұрын
Hey Danny, yes at the parking lot, you start up the trail passed the locked gate. This is the trail head to “Bridge to Nowhere”. After about a mile or so up the trail you will see the signs that are in the video. From there, the river starts to flow next to the trail with lots of easy access spots. Just keep hiking as if you’re going to bridge to nowhere and you’ll find some good spots along the way. This video was filmed in January 2021 after the Bobcat fire. East fork did not get affected by the Bobcat fire. You may have to hike further up since these areas are less affected by fishing pressure. Hope this helps.

Great video! Happy to see there are still fish in the river and in the same pools that I used to fish. i love the beauty of those native trout! My dad started taking me fishing there when I was three years old, and I caught my first fish there at age four. We used to go there to fish on opening day of the fishing season as they used to stock a lot of large trout. I fished there almost weekly, from 1951 to 1976 before moving on to bigger lakes and streams. I am 75 years old now and still fishing.
