Rumor has is Bill Tolton is up at the creek. No Doubt Scout will be meeting up with him. Hoping the fish seek shelter. Have a great time guys!

Rumors are true, met up with him last night, He and his buddy were headed into the backcountry today, everything in the valley is too warm to fish, if you have a conscience.

With the water levels where they are I'm sure its not doing well for the trout with the hotter days.

I haven't been out to the River yet. First time like this since I've lived here.

The rumors are true !
My buddy and I had a great time as always camping in RC, thanks to Packer for letting us use his Site right on the Creek !
Many good times have been had in that site and when the breeze blows thru, I swear you can hear the laughs and voices of past gatherings !
We hiked and fished up in LLV, made it up to chickenfoot and even made a side trip to big fish, caught and missed plenty of wild brookies, good time on 7'6" 3wt fly rod.
Like Scout said the water level in the creeks is shockingly low ! We also made a trip to Reds Meadow and fished the San Joaquin from lower falls back to the trailhead and the water was very low there also.
We Need a Big Snow Year !!!

Glad the trip went well and the bear didinot eat you guys. Fear some of the backcountry lakes that are smaller might even freeze solid this winter making them fishless for the spring. Planned to be at the Hiltons 27th-1st but cancelled those plans a few weeks ago.
