Maple Lake

Last week we decided to take a hike up to Maple Lake and go fishing. Because the gate is still closed off you can't drive up there so we had quite the walk there. Even though the trees still don't have their leaves, it was very pretty.



Here is Devyn noticing the "Bear Country" sign

luckily, we didn't see any bears!
Finally the lake is in site.
Ethan, had a stick in his hands during the whole hike up.
Sticks are fine, but when they get too big, they get in the way.

Here is Devyn fishing , Isn't this beautiful!

(Kinda dark, because we went after Dan got off work)

Here is Ethan, he has a fish on the line.

Notice how jacob is helping him, by totally taking over the pole

Here is Ethans fish, a very proud little boy

Here is Jacob with one of his fish

It was nice that the fish were biting like crazy. Jacob could cast and real them in all by himself. He even caught a fish with no help at all.

Now Devyn got one!

Devyn wanted me to make her fish into fish sticks. So I told her if she caught some fish then I would make them for her.

This was a fun place for her to fish because they were biting like crazy, you don't have to be patient.

Yay, another fish and it's a big one.

We released a few back in the lake and ended keeping about six fish.

Then made our way back down the canyon before it got dark

A fun little video

(This was funny, at the very end you will hear Devyn ask if that white stuff the fish is spraying is milk, and does that mean it's a girl fish? I stopped filming there because I couldn't stop laughing)
