Author: Jerome Yesavage, CalTrout Streamkeeper for the
Desolation Wilderness
This is a very handy guide to help you hook golden, rainbow, brook and brown trout in this beautiful California backpacking area.
Proceeds from the book are to be used to further
biological studies of the area which has been a hotbed of controversy about the interactions of fish
and amphibian populations in the High Sierra. For example, last summer it partially funded a
joint DFG/USFS pack trip to study several frog populations in the Wilderness.
Yesavage tells you what types of trout are in each lake and how to fly fish it and availability of campsites. Many color photographs show the beauty of the area. Over 60 lakes are treated angling opportunities for a lifetime. 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches, 64 pages.
