Fly Fishing the ICONIC Yosemite National Park || California Gold Pt 6
Fly Fishing Yosemite National Park!!
It’s not too often that you see something that is so breathtaking that it almost defy’s belief. And as one of America’s most popular National Parks, Yosemite has a way of defying belief over and over and over again. Whether it’s the towering granite cliffs of Yosemite valley, the 2400+ foot waterfalls, or the ancient giant sequoias this park has a way of making you feel small.
I’ll be honest, Andrew and I just wanted to visit the Yosemite because I mean… who doesn’t? Of course there was no way we weren’t going to be fishing while we were there. So we decided to see how many creeks we could catch trout out of while we were visiting the park. With absolutely no knowledge of what type of trout would even be in the creeks and rivers of Yosemite, we were going in blind. BUT it didn’t take long to get on the board.
In between creeks we decided to check out the mariposa grove of Giant sequoias because seeing these trees has been on our bucket list for as long as I can remember. And they didn’t disappoint. These giant sequioas are incredible and something you have to see to truly understand how impressive they are. Each tree needs at least 500 gallons of water a day, can live well over 3,000 years, and their bark grows up to 3 feet thick to protect them from fires. There’s just nothing else quite like them. After we decided to stop staring at giant trees we finally got back to fishing…
As we entered Yosemite valley I realized why so many people visited this national park. These granite cliffs are mind blowing, and no picture or video will ever do it justice. It is one of, if not the most impressive thing I’ve seen in nature. From El Capitan to the half dome, it has to be one of the most impressive valley’s on earth. It’s hard to find the words to describe how small you feel as you’re staring almost directly above you to see the tops of these towering cliffs. It’s breathtakingly beautiful and something everyone should get to experience at least once in their lives.
And just like that our California trip was over. We managed to catch 5 different native species to California and visit one of America’s most iconic national parks. This was one of the most difficult, but also most rewarding trips I’ve ever been on. We hiked over 100 miles in one week and got a taste of what the Sierra’s have to offer. I sincerely hope you enjoyed this series and as always, Thanks for watching.
