Trout Pond Magic | Fishing the High Sierras near Bishop, Ca. | 395 Run

My first trip up 395 in 12 years found some great fishing for a variety of trout. This pond was at an elevation of 8,000, and I had it all to myself.

Good times! Thanks for posting

[@rohrsoutdoors]

You bet! Can’t wait to get back up there, but rewatching this one is almost as good.

I found this little gem! The small dam down stream is also full of nice ones! Great video and hook sets! I will be enjoying this spot for years to come, thank you and tight lines! 🤙🏽

[@rohrsoutdoors]

Glad you liked the video!

I used to go to bishop as a kid all the time, gotta get back one of these days. Great job man

[@rohrsoutdoors]

Thanks, my first time back in a dozen years.

Here in southern california , I would say 8 out of 10 use hook baits , from the lakes I go to.stock season here starts on november

[@rohrsoutdoors]

[@Josh51507]

Thanks!

What pond or lake is this ? beautiful 😍

[@rohrsoutdoors]

I am going to keep this one a secret, it is probably my favorite spot in all of Bishop.

@@rohrsoutdoors I fish eastern sierras every year honey holes are like knowledge , what’s the use if you don’t share . 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@stephenhillcomposer]

Thanks for the view.

[@rohrsoutdoors]

I felt like I should be writing music. So peaceful.

[@marceloamador92024]

How do hookup baits work outhere in the sierras?

[@rohrsoutdoors]

I have no idea, never tried em.

[@bigbadassmej]

What set up do you recommend most? I would love to get details on like what kind of rig you set up , hook size etc.
As a new fisherman I have much to learn

[@rohrsoutdoors]

For lakes and ponds I like to fish a Carolina rig.
A fairly small sliding egg sinker with a Carolina Keeper or swivel, and then a 12”-18” leader.
#8 Owner Mosquito hook.
Bait is either a mouse tail or the Berkeley night crawler chucks.

[@rohrsoutdoors]

I was just using #2 Izorline, no fluorocarbon.

[@saulescamilla5213]

Hello quick question where did you get the Síberian GARLIC OIL SUPER SCENT

[@rohrsoutdoors]

Fisherman’s Access- fifteen years ago.

[@rohrsoutdoors]

It’s like a fine wine at this point.

[@saulescamilla5213]

@@rohrsoutdoors did they stop making them I tried looking for it but can’t find it anywhere

[@Rapid99_]

How long is the pole? Hopefully I go this weekend! First time and very interested on catching trout!

[@rohrsoutdoors]

5’ and 7’. Longer rods for lakes and casting distance. The shorter rods better for getting around in the brush.

[@rohrsoutdoors]

#2 Izorline xxx for both.

[@derralfields]

I would like to see the fish

[@rohrsoutdoors]

Understood- I try to touch them as little as possible when I am not keeping them to eat, that’s why I avoid a net and lots of time out of the water.

[@jeremywagner195]

Cool vid but I would try to show the fish a bit more 👍🏼

[@rohrsoutdoors]

I appreciate the feedback.

[@JustinDiballa-mk5ky]

I went to the kerns river today with my pops and sadly skunked trying to find some good places in southern california for trout

[@rohrsoutdoors]

That stinks. Trout fishing is so hit or miss it can drive you crazy.
