My wife took my son Mike, girlfriend Lizzy and my grandson Colton to Rock Creek, below Mammoth Pools yesterday...Wifes camera is having some download issues and hopefully we will have some action shots to add...Colton says Uncle Mike is the best fisherman ever ::) We'll see. We had a very nice Trout dinner.

Very nice table fare. Fresh trout it doesn't get much better than that.
Congrats to the family.
One of our families favorite places to camp.
Small Creek, big trout. Nice fishes😁
I fished the area in the early 60's.

I used to take a bamboo pole with a couple of chicken livers wrapped in a piece of cheese cloth and dip for crawdads just to the left side of the boat launch.
You could fill a 5 gallon bucket In a hour or so.
Good eats.
Looks like you guys had fun BT!
