Fly Fishing Bridalveil Creek in Yosemite National Park, CA

Notice: Viewers are requested to refrain from posting comments regarding stream destroying, hot spotting or fish handling techniques. Violators will be permanently muted.
Bridalveil Creek, in California's Yosemite National Park, offers fishing for brown trout, brook trout and a few rainbow trout. Access is from Glacier Point Road. There is a campground nearby and better success may be had if you walk a ways from the campground. Most people know Bridalveil by the spectacular waterfall it forms while falling into Yosemite valley. Farther up in the mountains it is a relatively quiet stream. There is a trail following it upstream. The 5 mile section below Glacier Point Road is not followed by a trail and is a bit rugged but there is one trail that crosses that section.
If you're going to fish Bridalveil Creek, if you haven't already done so I recommend to drive a few miles further and stop to see the Glacier Point overlook. With a view of half dome, Yosemite Valley, and several waterfalls, this might possibly be the best view in all of North America.
