Stopped by McKisic Creek on the way home from work this morning. The Wishing Springs Trail runs along this creek and trail is much busier than the creek. I was only able to stay for about an hour, but it was a wonderful chance to catch a handful of tiny yet beautiful fish on a red beadhead midge. Most of the creek is less than a foot and half deep, so it is not exactly full of monsters but the water is clear and the temperature was perfect, just beginning to seem seem like fall. I also saw several birds that I did not recognize. I need to bring a field guide for birds and fish next time I come. Little places tucked right under the nose of nearly everyone else going by are some of my favorite. This little creek may not be a wild river, but it was a wonderful place to slip away to for a little while.
