Here's another big rainbow that I caught last week on the Kern. There's quite a few big fish in the river and these fish are ready, willing and able to smash a fly. It would be a good time to get up to the Kern which isn't that far.
It's good to be back at the Kern, it's been a while since I've had a chance to fish here.
The DFG stocked two weeks ago on the upper and lower Kern before an event held in Kernville and regular stocking will resume next month after a year of "no stocking" because of a lawsuit. It's good to see the DFG has been able to resume stocking. The local businesses and fisherman are very happy.
