Late Summer in Mineral King

Annual trip to Mineral King, I like to get up here at least once a year, usually more often. This area is just amazing and probably my favorite area in the Western Sierra. As usual we stayed at Silver City Lodge (which has really upgraded their facilities!!) for 2 nights and fished 3 days in Mineral King.

Fishing was amazing as usual, caught lots of fish. Brookies, Rainbows and Goldens were abundant (and of course catch and release).

I caught all my fish on Dries, my favorite method. Fish were easily spooked but we used 1wt and 2wt rods and Tenkara so that wasn’t really a problem. Fishing was great all 3 days and I look forward to the next trip to Mineral King!!
