The problem as stated before is there is an endless number of places that are all fantastic depending on what you are looking for. Large lakes, small lakes, small fast moving streams slow streams in meadows for brookies. There are no bad places, but it is fishing, sometimes they bite sometimes they don't.
Pleasant valley reservoir and the owens river in bishop is good or sabrina in the mountains above bishop.
On the way north from bishop to mammoth is crowley, rock creek, convict just to name a few. Mammoth is home to any number of lakes. Lake George, Lake Mary, Twin Lakes, and Lake Mamie. Stocked often.
Hot Creek is world famous for its fine fishing. Catch and release with barbless artificial flies only. This is the only place in the area where the fish population is all natural. Fish up to 18" are regularly caught.
And you can't go wrong fishing the june lake loop north of mammoth.June Lake Loop is breathtaking with surrounding mountain scenery. It offers a variety of lakes and flowing streams. June Lake, Gull Lake, Silver Lake and Grant Lake are easily accessible without any hiking. Or keep heading north to bridgeport and the walker river. It really is endless.
oh and " all" these places I've mentioned are all within a couple of hours of each other most of them a half hour
or less. By july the upper lakes will be thawed and leaves even more great choices. Enjoy![fishin]
