Fly Fish the Kern River above the Johnsondale Bridge

01/20/16

Guy at the fly shop is very knowledgable. Spring is not the best time to fish this stretch of the Kern because of the snow runoff. Fall is the best time of the year to fish this area. Also take the time to walk a little father up river. The lower portion tends to get hit hard. Be sure to know the regulations prior to fishing. The river from Kernville to the Johnsondale Bridge is open year around.
