Fishing today! (w/pics)

Comment Published at 19:3519:354 comments4 comments24 Visits24 VisitsReport

Lily's first boat ride and fishing trip was today!

We went out to beautiful Powder Point. I'm part of a club that owns a cabin out there, and it was my first trip out. There was a fishing derby for all of the kids.

Beautiful scenery, we saw 2 bald eagles flying around. Lily caught her first fish, a 3lb 10 oz pike. Man, those sure are some UGLY fish!!! One of the boys filleted them up and we had a fish fry.... ugly, but oh so yummy... lol

Lily won a prize for the second biggest fish. Whooo Hooo!!!! She won a fishing rod (a barbie fishing rod, lol).

So now I'm exhausted, and will be taking myself to bed shortly!

Enjoy some pics!!!!

This is about an hour out of town, along the Ingram Trail (where the Ice Road Truckers travel in the winter!!)

It's just soooo beautiful here.

The beginning of Lily's first boat ride! She wasn't a fan to start, but by the end of the day she had definately found her "lake legs"! lol

Getting ready to go out and catch some fishies!!! PFDs of course!

Looking for fishies!

Reeling in the fish!!!!

Ugly sucker, eh?

3lbs 10 oz, and half as tall as Lily!!!

Here's me, catching my only fish of the day. This is about 1 minute after the motor died and I was reeling it in to go have a look and see if I could fix it. BTW.... we were out of gas!

Pike are groooooossssss!!!!!

Ok... I guess they're ok

Freeing the fish!
