Hi all.
Here's a little food for thought.
Just trying to be helpful.
I've been skiing and fishing Mammoth Lakes for many decades.
This year is turning out to be a banner year for skiing.
Right now, the entire Sierra Nevada range, including Mammoth lakes, is under well over 20 feet of snow, and more is on the way.
In some areas, the snow is over 25 feet deep.
For those of you making plans, I would recommend camping/backpacking trips later in the season.
Typically, early season water temps in heavy snow years tend to stay really cold.
The fish remain in their winter mode much longer than usual, and are not very active.
Of course, this is assuming the lakes will be accessible and/or ice free.
If the current pattern continues, May and June will be super tough.
Again, I'm not trying to be a buzzkill about all your plans, but definitely consider this.
Also, assuming things warm up going into May, the runoff will be super heavy.
this will definitely impact fishing condition.
Just my two cents worth.
