Fishie Creek
Sunday, April 1, 2007
So there is a certain time of year when millions of fish swim upstream and overcome obstacles such as waterfalls, strong currents, bigger fish hunting, and as we witnessed today, little boys with "boats" on a string... There is this amazing place about 10 minutes from our house that was landscaped 50 years ago by some guy in the area (yeah, I could have done more research on this, but I was too interested in the actual sights...) where a stream waterfalls into 5 smaller channels and then into a pool where mass numbers of some small type of fish make their way up the stream. the only problem is that only one of the streams has gentle enough slopes that make it possible for the fish to reach their destination of higher ground, the rest spend weeks swimming the few feet against the strong current only to get stuck against the side of the waterfall. the fish are so thick that you can stick your hand in and touch two or three at a time, and can easily catch one with your bare hands.
