ROCK CREEK / EASTERN SIERRA OUTING | SEPT 19-21, 2024

Arrive Thursday, Sept 19
Fish Friday & Saturday - Sept 20 & 21
Depart Sunday morning - Sept 22nd


This will be a combo camping/lodging trip.

We're going to camp at French Camp on Rock Creek close to Toms Place. For those seeking lodging, your best bets could be Toms Place, which rents rooms and cabins or numerous options in Mammoth Lakes (about 18 miles north of Tom’s Place).

We'll fish Lake Crowley, Rock, Hot and McGee creeks, the Upper and Middle Owens and much more.

You're not going to want to miss this trip as I'm sure memories will be made on the water, around the campfire and under the stars.
