the DFG will plant trout to 5-0. The Owens River near Bishop is fair with a
few scattered catches of trout reported from deeper pools on Power Bait or

How long is the drive up to the High Sierras from L.A.? I would like to try it at least once or a few hundred times in my lifetime.
Thanks.

Nirvana Fan,

From L.A. (S.F. Valley), Mammoth Lakes is about 4 1/2/ to 5 hours. The drive goes by fast though. Do the drive at night time if you can; it's a nice relaxing drive through the Mojave Desert at night time, put it on an AM radio talk show like "Coast 2 Coast" radio show, and just kick back and drive.

I'm too young to remember that; but I do remember my uncles talking about it.

I usually leave my house in La Mirada a little after midnight, by the time the sun comes up I am fishing either Big Pine or Bishop.

If you ever need a carpool buddy, who has some rare Nirvana tracks that he could blast on the way over there, just give me a hollah!

A buddy and I plan on heading up for a three day weekend in June sometime, I usually fish Friday, Saturday and Sunday and come home Sunday evening. I will give you plenty of notice when we make our plans, if you can split the cost on a hotel and rental truck with us you are welcome. If scheduling and weather conditions work out we might go up to Mammoth with everyone else instead, we shall see...
