Is It Me, or Is Walleye Fishing Rivaling Bass Fishing as Number One Now?
I’ve noticed walleye fishing has been getting very popular nowadays. Maybe even rivaling bass fishing. Your thoughts?
Not in costs, assortments of lures, etc. I mean the popularity. I’m not saying walleye are better than bass or anything it’s just that walleye fishing is boosting popularity quick. Pick up a fishing magazine. North American Magazine, Field & Stream etc. You’ll find that Walleye is quite popular now.
Fish Trout/Bass around Los Angeles?
I was happy to find out that I can fish in Balboa Park, which is about 20 minutes away, but when I arrived there I find out that there is no Bass or Trout… Where can I fish Trout/Bass around Los Angeles area? I like fishing in the rivers, but if a closest river spot is too far away I am down for lakes if it is the only option. I am down for driving for about an hour.
Any ideas guys?! I’ll greatly appreciate any answers!
Many of the local parks that have sizable ponds get stocked by the city and fish and game with trout during the winter months. The DFG will have the stocking schedule for your area. Pay sites for fishing trout and bass are fairly limited in L.A. you have to go down to the Orange County area to Santa Ana River lakes or Irvine Lake. Up in our local mountains the east and west forks of the San Gabriel rivers have trout. Puddingstone Lake, Castaic Lake,and Pyramid lake are well known for their bass. Eldorado park lakes is stocked with trout catfish and has a few bass very finicky taking only the best presentations it’s popular with they fly bass fisherman. Peck road lakes also has all three again very finicky. Again check the dfg plants and see what’s closest to you.

Gone Fishin’….LA River Style
One month trip around Alaska: how much can I expect to spend?
I am considering a trip around Alaska for a month next summer. I haven’t made an exact itinerary, but I do plan on hiking around Denali park, seeing some glaciers, doing some salmon fishing, and skiing possibly. It’s my intention to travel around a good area of Alaska (through ferry, hiking, flying), so there will definitely be a variety of lodging (camping, hotel, lodge, etc.). If anyone has done a similar excursion around Alaska, how much did it cost you total for the time period? I’ve only allocated about $4000 for a trip ($3000 after airfare to Alaska), but I’m really hoping I can afford exploring Alaska with this amount of money. Like I said, I haven’t detailed exactly what I am going to do, but I want to make sure $4000 is a reasonable enough to even consider Alaska. Thanks for any input!
If I were you I would estimate about $200/day. I have found this a really good average for trips like this. This does not include airfare, but does include meals, lodging, special excursions, short flights, etc.
