5.0 out of 5 stars a must for the eastern sierra angler, May 10, 2004

By A Customer

I first read this book at my friends cabin at June Lake. I was a powerbait rooster tail guy. This book has provided me so much information on fishing. I gives a rating and directions to tons of places to fish beautiful places that people just dont know about. It provides tactics and where the good spots at the locations are.I have become a much better fisherman frome this generous info in this book. This is a must for sombody looking to evolve.

5.0 out of 5 stars Trout anglers cannot do without this book!, November 14, 2001

I've got to say that John Barbier's book has made my fishing trips to the Eastern Sierra not only more fun, but the most productive I've ever had. I carry his book in my creel whenever I make the short trip to the Sierras. This guide is so simple that my 10 year old brother can read and understand it. It plainly goes through Each lake and stream and tells you what type of fish are present there, what will work best to catch these fish, and what won't. You know that you're getting great advice from John because he has personally fished every water in the book many times over the decades that he has been coming to the Sierras. He rates each lake and stream on the fishing productivity as well as the scenery and tells you how to get to each spot. The book is so enjoyable to read because John seems to have such a positive and cheery attitude about everything. Do you want to catch the coveted golden trout for the first time, but don't want to take the strenuous hikes to reach them? John details the easiest golden trout waters to get to. Some of them only an easy 15 minute walk! I believe that anyone who has fished the Eastern Sierras before and is looking for new places to fish, as well as those who've never fished this awesome place should definitely buy this book! It really is the best piece of "fishing equipment" that I have ever picked up. I look forward to the day when I see John Barbier in the Sierra high country to thank him for writing this phenomenal book. Keep Reelin'!
