Upper Kern 1&2

Description

Upper Kern 1&2 covers the Upper Kern river between Kernville and Johnsondale Bridge. Shows camping areas, road access, trails, and creeks. Special Features are the Hatch Chart, Fishing Season and Regulations, Fish Identification, and Stream Etiquette guidelines.

The Upper Kern 1&2, below the Johnsondale Bridge, is a heavily used area by river rafters, bait fishermen, and bathers. It is divided into two sections by the Fairview Dam which pipes the water to a lower power plant. The river is open year-round with a 5 fish limit. Fly fishing opportunities are best in the late Fall and through the winter months before high water levels occur during the Spring. The river contains deep runs and pools.
