Bishop trip 3-5-2020 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have not done any trout fishing here in California, only ocean and at the Colorado River. Are there rules for accessing the streams and rivers in regards to private property?

In my hometown in Colorado, if the river runs through private property, then you can't fish without permission (which is why I really don't fish much there anymore because a lot of the best fishing is "managed" by expensive clubs). At my place in Idaho, you can access water on private property as long as you are in the water, ie. wading, or within the water line. I'd like to head up to the Bishop area and give it a go, but I've got not experience w/ the area.
