I'll be out there on business the first weekend in May. A local fly shop directed me to some striper and perch surf fishing, but I kindly explained that I'm really a trout bum...

He mentioned TWO places.

1) The upper Carmel River

2) Salmon Creek above the falls

I don't know what any of this means, but I'm excited to try em out. If any of you have experience in these areas please let me know! I've heard there's been a decline in these trout fisheries due to damming and irrigation, and that they are near worthless now, but I am forever the optimist and am determined to find some fine trout fishing while I'm out there.

Thanks in advance!

Casey
