Never fished the Ranch. Just the public section. Since moving to the
SF Bay area have not been back to eastern Sierras. Last time on Hot
Creek I had an interesting encounter. I was just swinging by there
for about half hour on the way home. Not in the mood to stalk and
crouch I reached into the flybox for a big ugly. Turk's tarantula.
Perfect. Let's look for a dumb fish. I began walking and smacking
that fly as hard as I could. I came upon an underwater ledge where a
group of suckers were doing their thing - sucking. There were so many
of them it was disgusting. As I made my next cast a 20+ brown emerges
from within that writhing mass of suckers and pounds my fly. I stood
there paralyzed as the big brown spit the fly and disappeared back
below the sucker orgy.
