Bishop,Mammoth,Lee Vining,Bridgeport and Bodie

[Tim524]

 Well, The Pig Party was a success as usual so it was time to take a break and head North for a getaway to relax. My Buddy let us have his Vacation Home for 5 days since he wasn't going to be there till next weekend(AWESOME) 1st stop was Owens River just below Bishop to see if there were any Biters
 



I could see them but they had Lock-Jaw 


No hookups so we hit the local Vons to stock up on food, a storm was brewing    Typical for this time of year, 95 degrees and rain


Getting late in the day so we stopped for Dinner once we made it up the hill from Bishop.




Made it to the house and Janie was ready to get settled in


The Hearse got wasted from the rain, she got all spotted up



Sunrise at this place is great


Janie wanted to Venture North since this was her Vacation and we were celebrating our 36th Anniversary, this was my 4th trip up here this year so she pulled rank on the first day



Walked around Bridgeport and did some shopping   Cool little town


Next stop was Bodie then Lee Vining





The next day we went back to Bishop to see our favorite spots, it never gets old being up in elevation and taking in the beauty of it all !







Lake Sabrina was a bit low, I thought it would be full but they always let water in and out for some reason.



Time to find some fish again, Janie relaxed and read a book while I scouted, remember, this is her getaway 

 
Had to water a tree along the way but we found fish......about 40 or so all on a Rooster Tail




The next day was rinse and repeat and I ended up with about 60, Hookup Baits worked even better  






Monday rolled around after landing about 100 Trout, we were going to stay till Tuesday but it's always nice to come home with a day left to chill and unwind. We left about 6:30am and stopped in Bishop one last time for some Treats




Since we were passing by on our way home



Great trip and nice to be home so Janie wanted to "Look" at at RV's to get ideas on a smaller rig, our 36' 5th Wheel is way too big to navigate most of the Campgrounds up there so a 2nd rig would be nice
Just Looking today !!!


Today we had a Lunch Date with a visit to Carlsbad for a bite to eat



Ok, time to chill on the Junk Food and get back to reality   Thanks for looking and be safe out there !

I have video of all the action, not sure how to post them here but I'll try this
