However, John and Judy Wakabayshi made it back to Gilmore Lake. As you can see from the photo below, the Lake Trout are alive and well. This one, though looks anything but stunted. John has now set up a web site with more info. Hopefully, next year I'll get up to Gilmore to check these fish out, but I have been spending a lot of time on the Emigrant Wilderness issues.
Bottom line is that there is a lot of good fishing going on.
Some of the lakes that have appeared outstanding recently are Heather and Gilmore for larger fish. Lyons Creek on the west side seems to be repopulating after losses during the drought years. I have taken a number of nice brookies out of Floating Island but Catherdral has seemed fishless for a couple years. I have heard negative reports about Susie Lake that I had so highly recommended in the book. Had a nice report about fishing down the Rubicon from Clyde Lake as unchanged to better conditions than I have seen in the past.
