October is going to be very cold. In the teens overnight. Pack accordingly. Plan to cut your own wood and go to big springs to camp. It's free and a bit secluded. It is 9 miles past mammoth turn off take a right on Owens valley road and take first paved left into big spring campground as far as fishing goes if your by yourself fish the streams between silver lake and grant lake. Otherwise fish silver lake. It's stocked more than the others. Hot creek is closed but there are hot springs still open in that general area. If you go out the road with the pool. Just south of airport the hot springs are easily accessible. Just look for cars or well traveled roads. Go to Bodie that is a cool place to check out. Maybe go fish a lake or two near Bridgeport. So many things to do and places to see in mammoth area. But be warned I was there in the beginning of October camping and it was really cold. Ground frozen in the am cold.
