Bad Pig Got Frozen

[Tim524]

 After Bad Pig got a bath,I made the Trek up North for "Fishmas" and was greeted with overcast skies and traffic on The Cajon Pass




As usual it cleared up at the top


The Sierras still had snow and it's always a great sight to see after going thru the Desert full of Lava Rocks and Cactus


Opening Day wasn't till Saturday so I was limited to where I could fish. The Lower Owens was open and I made a few stops and found a few players. The water was a bit stained but I had time to kill
 



I had my eye on another Hoof for Tom      Them pesky Cows are everywhere in the Valley



Mid week I had the water to myself at the Power Plant and hooked a nice one   I took a video of the catch but holding the phone and reeling a fighting fish against the current of the river was a CLUSTER 
 

Got to the house and had the place to myself till The Crew showed up



There was 8 of us so we were busy and we also ate like Kings as usual






One of the days my buddy and I walked across the street to the park to let his dog run around, Lake Crowley was calling us



Saturday arrived and we headed to the Lake, the weather had other plans, it was only 30 degrees and it started to snow as they were Float Tubing



After an hour we had enough and went back to the house to unload the Tubes and headed back down the hill to warmer territory. Found Bad Pig getting covered in snow, first time since I owned the truck
 


We never bothered to scout around up in the higher elevations cause it would have been a Zoo to say the least, sun or snow, Opening Day is a Sh*T Show

Some of the guys hit the Jacuzzi, I was taking pics of the property from inside as the snow turned the trees all white.....such a cool setting 



Sunday, the day to come home so I hit the road early and made the Trek back to reality with snow on my hood till I got past Bishop.



Made a Pit Stop at the Toy Store and had my usual....Calamari and Fries 



Too bad Janie wasn't with me, Pontoons were everywhere     



Hope we get a break in the weather, The Cyclops is due to get wet !

Oh yeah, I made it out of Bass Pro under 70 bucks     Funny how that works when you fly Solo

Well damn Tim! Great trout trip up there again! I don't know about any more cow bones in the truck though. That might get you some more stuffed fun stuff in your cab. Lol

Great read and pics boss!

Beautiful fish, looks like a great time as always. Thanks for sharing!

Fishing was a lot slower than last trip, I only landed 25 but still worth every minute of being up there !

Now I'm seeing the correlation... More fish, more money spent at BPS and vice versa.
