1st trip to the Kern
Posted: Sun Oct 05, 2008 12:09 pm
First I'd like to let you all know how happy I am to find this board. It's great to find a place with local folks who have 1st hand knowledge of the area and seem to be happy sharing their experiences.
My wife and I are heading up to Fairview campground on Oct.18th - 24th for our first time to the Kern River area. We're going to be camping, fishing, hiking, and basically taking it easy for the week. I'm hoping I might be able to get some good helpful hints as to good places to fish, see, and check out while we're in the area. I'm not knowledgeable in fly fishing so we'll be sticking with ultra light spinning rigs. Any good ideas for bait or lures? I see the Panther Martin spinners seem to be popular. What size/colors?
Thanks in advance. I really appreciate your time.
