Fishing with Tanner

Well, it's that time of year again, fishing season. For those of you who even casually know me, you know that I am a complete fishing addict. And, of all the different times of year to fish, my favorite is summer fishing for trout in the Eastern Sierra's. The Sierra trout are not the biggest fish, but there is something so special about being on a cool mountain stream and fly casting for beautiful trout.


This year, I have picked up a new fishing partner, my cousin Tanner. We have gone fishing on Truckee river for beautiful wild trout as well as the East Carson and West Walker rivers. We just came back from a two day trip on the West Walker. The fishing was AMAZING! We had hundreds of hook-ups and many dozen fish each. Here are a few of the photos taken over the last couple of days.

West Walker, a 16 inch rainbow trout.

We had several double hook-ups!
