Also heard the the lower section by Basin Creek is in great shape with plenty of smaller wild fish. Good luck!

One thing in particular was a very, very good hunting knife I left under the bridge where it crosses Silver Fork. I knew where I left it, ran right back up there, and it was gone, gone, gone.

I drove back to the river (North Fork Tuolumne at Basin Creek) and retracted my steps. Gave up, but on the walk back found my box, open, resting on top of a moss-covered boulder. Best catch of the day! About three years ago, when I had finally filled my first fly box, I lost it. I drove back to the river (North Fork Tuolumne at Basin Creek) and retracted my steps.

Been there, done that with the Opening Day combat...one can take getting hit in the head by a Kastmaster only so many times. Truth be told, we do have some year-round rivers, two that are within a two-hour drive, but the best, in my opinion are, of course, on the <em>other side</em> of the the Sierra Nevada.

I just wanted to let you know I do really enjoy your writings (especially the rants). I tip my hat to you for not joining the combat fishing on opening day. I can only imagine what that's like. Sounds like you had a much better time. Thanks for removing the Retin-A ad Patrick…I get easily confused. I just wanted to let you know I do really enjoy your writings (especially the rants).
