Spent the last few days fishing on Bridgeport Reservoir with my friends from So Cal, Tom & Rita.
This great angling couple have been married for 58 years and they love fishing and exploring the Eastern Sierra together.
We ended up with several Rainbows. Kept a few for the grill and released the rest. The keepers included (2) BFEF tagged trophy trout weighing in at 4lbs 12oz & 5lbs 5oz.
Shout out to Mono Village and The Burger Barn for hosting and serving them great meals during their stay.👍🎣🐟😁

Had a fun morning fishing on Bridgeport Reservoir with my friend, John Peters and his 7 year old grandson, Nico.

Nico learned the "Here fishy fishy" dance and how to pick the best worms for trolling. To say he caught on quickly is a understatement.
We (he) landed several Rainbows and kept a few for their dinner, the rest were released for another day.😁🎣🐟👍
