Western Forks - San Gabriel Mountains Trout Fishing
A History Of Local California Trout Stocking in the San Bernardino Mountains
I am fascinated by the early days of fishing in the local San Bernardino Mountains. Wild reports from period newspapers document insane numbers of fish being caught-and also stocked. It's often hard to follow the chain of events that led to multiple intense stockings in the local hills - of which I am grateful for. Historian Tom Atchley has written a fantastic piece on the litany of different stockings, hatcheries, and fishing reports from Mill Creek, Santa Ana River, Big Bear Lake, and much more. You can read it here - highly recommended!
