Western Outdoor NewsPublished: Apr 24, 2012
BISHOP — This Saturday mark the opening of the 2012 Eastern Sierra tour season, and despite some of the heaviest snowfall of the winter in the past few weeks, anglers will find more open water than anytime in recent memory for the opening. WON staffers will be at the various lakes ad streams covering the opener for next week’s issue.
This could be one of the most exciting openers in years because of the open water and the fact that trout have been actively feeding in water free of ice for months. Some of the events planned for opening day include:
— Bishop area anglers can also enter the annual Rainbow Days Trout Festival that offers prizes for several fishing categories. The event is hosted by the Bishop Chamber of Commerce, the City of Bishop and Inyo County and is held at Bishop City Park starting at 2 p.m. opening day.
— Those heading north from Bishop can stop at Tom’s Place on Rock Creek where there will be an opening day derby offering cash and merchandise prizes for the blind bogey fish and biggest fish.
— Anglers at Crowley can enter the Fred Hall Memorial Derby on opening day that offers a cash prize and runner up awards in several adult and kids categories.
— The June Lake Chamber of Commerce will be hosting the annual Monster Trout Derby at Ernie’s Tackle with prizes awarded in 13 categories. There is no entry fee.
— Mono Village at Upper Twin Lake will host the annual opening weekend derby offering cash and prizes in several categories.
