I spent a couple of days with the family in Yosemite National Park. The quote from Mr. Ansel Adams sums it up perfectly. I fished the Merced River for an hour, but the smaller south fork. I had my bare bone essentials, a Tenkara rod and some flies - turns out, that is basically all I need. I had no wading shoes or waders, so I just gently walked around in my shorts & Hanes wading shoes. To stand around trees that are 300 feet tall and 1500 years old makes you feel kind of small but it also makes you think. I was last here when I was my kid's age, and if my kids have children, I hope they bring them here. It is entirely, a majestic place.
"Yosemite Valley, to me, is always a sunrise, a glitter of
green and golden wonder in a vast edifice of stone and space." - Ansel Adams
Glad to see you guys doing the fun thing in midst of your hectic schedule. Surprise to see the familiar resemblance of the west coast trout to the east
ReplyDeleteMerced River 에 고기는 진짜 많더라. 큰놈도 눈에 보이는데, 잡지는 못했어. 나중에 한번 다시 갈만 하더라.
ReplyDeletea beautiful spot. I fished that same location 6 years ago when i was trout bummin around the U.S. no wife no kid. just me and the back of my truck. ahhh good memories
ReplyDeleteIts a pretty amazing place. America is beautiful in many ways but Yosemite has to be in the top 3 for sure.
ReplyDeleteYou were in my back yard. Sorry to see that you were there when I am not. The Merced river is nice place to fish. We will go there together for sure next time.
