I still want to fish the high places but without a good set of legs and too much good living on the stomach it was time to consider an alternative way to get there. These days I cannot trek on foot to the high country but I still fondly remember the places I’ve fished, from Yosemite, June Loop, Rock Creek, Pine Valley, Bishop Basin, and places south along the Eastern Sierra. I have travelled the back country of the Sierra but mostly on a set of younger feet. What if for a few precious hours or more you could fish a pristine high country lake where you are the only angler? The brook trout are eager to taste your offerings on the fly or perhaps some other bait but best of all, the high country scenery will just enchant you with a lifetime of memories. We drive our packed vehicles to resorts, unload the car and find our favorite fishing holes with hopes of few other anglers to content with. For most of us Southern Californians who love to fish the High Sierra we rarely think about alternative traveling to the back country.
