Fly fishing eastern sierras / East Walker River

#flyfishing #browntrout #riverfishing #troutfishing #rainbowtrout
My brother and I took our final trip to the Eastern Sierras mid-October. We were searching for some big wild brown trout. We lost a few fish that were exactly what we were after but finally got one to the net. We also saw two things you don't normally see while out on the river.... Watch the video and I'm sure you will know what I'm talking about.

That's a good day of fishing right there. That brown was a beaut. Nice catch. Nice video brotha

[@bucksnboils]

Thanks, probably not going to be picking up the fly rod again until late spring. It was fun spending so much time over there this year though.

[@FreeFormFlyFisher]

@bucksnboils yea the east side has some good fishing waters. Some of the best in the state. I haven't fished in over a month and with Temps dropping fast, I might not head out till spring myself haha. Me and cold don't like each other haha.

@11:11 That’s a nice spot right there! Caught me a 20” brown 👌 but nice video my guy 🫡 East Walker never disappoints!

[@bucksnboils]

@KimchiJerry thanks, I heard there was a large fish die off recently there. I hope it bounces back but it might take a while

Yeah that’s snowshoe they greyish in summer they like those juniper trees good thanks might have to take my dogs in the summer time or after deer season is over 👍🏻

[@bucksnboils]

Good deal, thanks for watching

I hate when those pilots do that especially when they come at you right over the ridge with no warning. They’re so low sometimes you can see the pilots face. The sound puts waves on the water and shake the brush and leaves are blown off the trees. They got me on the Walker 3 times and the Kern once where because it’s more of a canyon the sound really hurt the ears drums.

[@bucksnboils]

@jdoza5184 haha yup. It's pretty startling when you are out there trying to have some peace and quiet then they come ripping through the canyon

[@jdoza5184]

@@bucksnboils just out of curiosity I asked an employee at the fly shop in Bridgeport about it and he said they practice going thru canyons because it’s similar to what their expecting when it’s for real. Go Air Force !

Just a question bud have you seen snowshoehare on your hunts I have hunting dogs and hunt rabbits just asking cause I see you hunt the sierras thanks

I seen a large rabbit up at 10,000 feet in the little walker area that has a white stripe down the back of his ear. It was the only one I've seen like that and wasn't a Cottontail or jack so it may have been one of those. I'm not really familiar with what they look like in the late summer months but this particular rabbit looked different than the others I've seen
