silver king creek A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO FISH A CREEK THAT HAS BEEN CLOSED FOR OVER FORTY YEARS!

IT STARTED WITH THIS INVITATION FROM ROGER BLOOM, SENIOR FISHERIES BIOLOGIST, CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME.

EXCITED, YOU BET I WAS! HAVING THE CHANCE TO FISH THIS CLOSED WATER AS PART OF THE DFG STUDY, ALSO WOULD ENABLE ME TO CATCH A PAIUTE CUTTHROAT THE RAREST CALIFORNIA HERITAGE TROUT AND WOULD GIVE ME TEN OF THE ELEVEN SUB-SPECIES. I COULD NOT PASS UP THIS UNBELIEVABLE OPPORTUNITY!
