    This certainly brings back memories, my wife and I was just at Kennedy Meadows this time last year, so beautiful. She actually brought back a bucket of sand out of the south Kern, swears full of gold going to pan it out! Little did I know this would be our last camping trip together. We've been married since 1989, shortly after returning from Kennedy Meadows she became very ill, took her to the hospital something was attacking her muscle skeleton group, very toxic to one's organs. I sat in the hospital with her 12 hours a day for 10 days and she eventually passed from organ failures. Taking care of matters I was so hurt and angry, threw out and filled over 5 dumpsters of all the useless stuff we had accumulated. I did keep that bucket of sand ! Spend all the time you can with your loved one's as this is all we really have. She loved the mountains, spent a lot of time in the Mammoth area, Convict lake, Grant, Lundy, Bishop and of course Lake Isabella and the Kernville area. I just spent last week at Lake Isabella , caught bucket loads of trout, trying to cherish the time we had together.

    nice video. Is there alot of dispersed camping along the road/river in the event the campground is full?

    Nice video. The drive in looked pretty cool. I was reading about this area and saw that there were 3 roads to access this area. Can you say which road you used?

    Nice to see a fish in that area. I was up there last August and the water was still flowing high from the heavy winter. I fished some really fishing looking sections and didn't get anything. There weren't even the usual small trout bumping my fly. The spring runoff must of been brutal on the trout population.

      I was able to see other trout but the water was still a little high

      @@stealthfirefishing Glad the fish are there. Looks like spring runoff was just starting when you were there. It will probably be pretty high until late June early July.
      Every fish the Kern River (the big kern 🙂) above Kernville? Some good water there.

    thats a holdover stocker golden trout. The wild fish are typically smaller in that watershed. When was this?

    • @stealthfirefishing
      @stealthfirefishing  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Thank you for that. You are correct. I had no idea. I’m still trying to figure out all the different types of trout there are.

      If you never said anything, I would’ve thought it was still a rainbow

      I'm pretty sure its catch and release only during this time of year.

      That was not a rainbow looks like a golden trout had spots only and the tail area of the body

      From November to April you are allowed to catch fish but always release from April to November then you can take them
