A Day Off ...


Mike & I decided to take the day off ...
from working around the house ...
heading up to Premier Lake ...
for a day of fishing ...
I was the first one to catch a fish ... it was a small one ...
so was released back into the water ...
Later while Mike was netting a fish that I had caught ...
I spied a fish jumping out of the water...
and realized it was on Mike's fishing rod ...
so I grabbed it ... reeled it in ... and Mike netted it ...
we were amazed at the size of it ...  2 lbs ... !!! 

Our catch of fish for the afternoon ...
we were heading back to shore ... to make our way home ...
cleaning up the boat ... and start bringing in the lines ...
Of course my line would be the last one to reel in ...
I grabbed my rod ...
started reeling it in and snagged a Brooke Trout ... just under 2 lbs ...
I didn't catch it ... I snagged it in the head ...
we were astounded that I was able to get it into the boat ...
I did mention to Mike that there was one more fish ...
waiting for me to catch ...
What a wonderful day we had ... !!!!

  1. Great catch..that Kootenay Trout Hatchery sure does a great job keeping Premier Lake stocked with those trout! I spent alot of time at that lake and it's spawning station. Dinner for you guys tonight..so glad you took a day off.
