Roughing it in the Eastern Sierras

It's been a fun trip so far since the 9th.
"Todd Metal Art" and "Mitchel" from this site were up here when I got to Silver Lake. It was pretty cold for the first couple of nights but the days have been really nice with only a couple of days of thunderstorms so far.
Love that rustic cafe at the Silver Lake Resort. Great breakfasts and today I had lunch there for the first time. Check out the fish on the walls

Mitchells Rig at June and at Beaver Cove at Crowley Lake where he was camped. He said the trout were boiling in the cove and he was getting both Rainbows and Browns from shore on the Hookup Baits.

Hard to take a bad photo

Carson Peak and Silver Lake make it hard to take a bad photo

Ya that's the biggest trout I caught not sure the wt. But it measured 20 1/2 inches and i caught it in that deep hole off June beach hwy side, its over a 100ft there 20yds from shore there. I got it on a Thomas Boyant on the surface. The 5 trout took me a week to eat with sides of corn and bush sugarless beans.
I let all the rest of the trout go after that. The 20 incher
Got alittle beat up in my canoe trying to get a picture.
So I left it to the young lady working at the landing. She was happy to get it.

It was good to see you.
Don't think I ever seen rain going side ways across the asphalt road before, only it wasn't raining.
It snowed 🌨 4or5 inches that was how deep it was on the table. The snow ❄️ storm added a nice touch to my adventures but I'm glad it didn't last long 😅
Peace ✌️ out.
