Trout Fishing, Middle Fork Bishop Creek

Posted on | October 13, 2008 | 3 Comments

The majority of people I saw in Bishop Creek Canyon during the earlier part of the week were fishermen. In fact when I pulled into Lake Sabrina parking lot about 45 minutes before sunrise, two fishermen were already waiting in their van. Talk about dedication!

True to my photographing like a headless chicken style, I photographed some faint alpenglow on the peaks about Lake Sabrina and thought that was it for the light show so I left for this bridge over the Bishop Creek where I had seen fishermen the previous day. This guy and his friend were there fishing for a school of trout so I asked them if it was alright to take my pictures with them in the scene. Before you know it, the warm sunlight starts hitting the peaks of where I had been right before! On one hand I was upset with myself for not having enough patience and on the other hand I felt that this was a great opportunity to get some shots that I needed for my image collection. In the end it turned out to be a rather productive morning of photography.
