It’s early spring in The Sierra Mountains.  In most cases, it’s too early to fish unless you’re on a tail water.  The daytime temperatures are up and comfortable.  Get out there!  The photo below was taken at Upper Sardine Lake.  It’s a 20 minute hike from a trailhead.  When I was there, there wasn’t another person in sight and the view was stunning.  The only gear that I brought was my phone and a water bottle.  We’re so lucky to have free access to amazing places.  Enjoy it and respect it.
