Nine Mile Creek runs right through Camillus, where I grew up. It meanders around through Marcellus and Camillus—great place to fish.
My father was very big on trout fishing. It was something he picked up in retirement. He was the kind of person who would throw himself into whatever interest he had, and become very enthusiastic about it. His passion was catching and got me into it.
Opening day is April 1st. So it’s likely to still be cold, especially in the early morning, and there’s that excitement of getting out there and seeing the fish jump. Wow, it’s officially spring and life is happening!
