Fishing the Middle Fork Kaweah River - Sequoia National Park

On our first day in Sequoia, we did a little exploration of the Middle Fork of the Kaweah River, right outside of Three Rivers within the boundary of the National Park (past Paradise Creek). Only one brook trout was caught that day on a barbless Thomas Bouyant spoon lure.

A full on tree! We don't get those in so cal

[@R2burde]

I'm pretty sure that was a Madrone. It's a tree that grows in that area. They look real similar to manzanita

Wish I could have had time to fish while I was there last week , it was dark we were passing through so me & my lady just got dinner at the gateway restaurant. Definitely coming back to the lodge to stay a few nights & make a fishing trip out of it for the day time & chill & have drinks at the bar & food at the restaurant at night ! Cause when I don’t catch anything I just buy myself steak & lobster 🦞 😂

That's a win/win situation in my book. Hopefully I'll be able to head back up and do the same before the cold weather starts back up again!
