Fishing n Golfing

I got to go fishing for half a day. Got up at 3:30am and carpool up to a private lake at 5am.

On the way up, we got breakfast at a Del Taco. Here's DB all dopey looking at 6am.

Here's my uncle getting ready to fish.



Anyone for yummy "powerbait" (well, yummy for the fishes)?



Uncle Mike wetting his line ... and



catching the first trout while DB is still screwing around with his camera and fishing tackle!



After nearly 3 hours and no more fish (I had one really good bite but my leader line slipped and bye bye trout!), the fish stocking truck arrives and all fishing had to be suspended while the new trout got transferred in. The park ranger / fishing marshel guy imposed an hour and a half grace period after the new fish were added to give them a chance to get orientated (they were as dopey as I was waking up this morning).

Heres the sequence of photos on how lakes get restocked with new Trouts (video below):





Watch the little fishes come flying outta of the pipe!

Here's our one and only trout that we cleaned. It was actually a nice one but my uncle said that he usually catches bigger ones here. The ones being stocked today were pretty good size too!

We got home pretty quick in about an hour.

I went out afterwards to hit about a 150 golf balls out on the range.

Made it to "simple" church at the Hunts afterwards to meet with some brothers and to pray for one another.

Yup, just a regular day in LA (hee)!
