You make all the tough days look more enjoyable than any day at work. Plus, you bring the scenery into the living room of so many who would switch places.

Thanks. I think it would be fair to say many would like to switch places on the fishing and hiking part. The full time warehouse work on top of it to keep things going, not so much!

My grandfather used to plop his lawn chair down on that concrete platform and slay with weightless salmon eggs. Lots of good memories at that little spot.

Right on. Sounds like a great time. Back in the day I used to do some slaying myself with salmon eggs in rivers. I'd get tiny gold egg hooks that can be concealed completely by a single salmon egg. big trout will nail a single salmon egg. Glad I was able to help bring back those cherished memories for you.

We somehow missed you too! We were in Bishop this week as well. Your videos make us smile. No one is having more fun than you.

Right on. It's hard to track me down during my 36 hour overnight power trips. Especially this one where I kind of made half of the trip up as I went along. I knew I was hiking and fishing to George Lake and then everything else on the trip changed! I have a clip called the "Anatomy of my Eastern Sierra Trips" on my variety playlists that pretty much sums up the insanity of the schedule I try to keep when I'm on the road.

Yeah, my moral was down when I shot this clip but it was spiking through the roof the next day when I hiked up into that brookie action.

Good stuff. Making the best of a busted plan. Do you direct tie your maribou jig and spinner, (no swivel) ?

@wildernesswithamani1027

I directly tie every lure I use because I like to have as much control over the action of the lure as possible. I demonstrate this in a few videos on my fishing tips playlist.

Amani. I just missed you. I left Four Jeffery’s on 7-31. I was going to hike to the inlet to South Lake but Seth at the resort told me the trail was impassable right now. Dang it, I would have stayed if I new were coming. Maybe next time. See ya Wilderness with Amani.

Better luck at never winning a championship and being in 4th place with a huge payroll this year? Just kidding! You brought it up! I have hikes to a couple of different long lakes on my hiking and backpacking playlist including the one off of the Bishop pass trailhead. I have clips on my backcountry fishing playlist for a few lakes off of that trailhead and a couple from the Sabrina Basin Trailhead. My channel is all about the playlists.

USE A SWIVEL FOR YOUR PANTHERS OR SPINNERS . THEN YOUR LINE WONT TWIST

@wildernesswithamani1027

10 ай бұрын

I hate using swivels with lures. I can deal with a little twist. Pull some line off the top it's fine. I like to tie my lures directly to the line. I feel, especially in wild trout waters, it can make the difference between a large trout hitting or not. Hatchery fish it's probably not as important but I still like the sleeker presentation and finer control the way I like to drift spinners in current. Give me a big wild trout and I'll deal with some twist. Jigs, directly tying them to the line is essential for the way I need control of the action and like to fish them.

Lots of water is good but lots of mosquitoes isn't. That's fishing though.

Use a Rapala countdown you will have much more success then a spinner or jig
