This is Mount Shasta which is near the Oregon/California border and visible from our lake cabin resort.
Our family went out with a fishing guide on the Lake of the Woods and we caught 5 fish and lost a whole bunch more. Fishing requires a deft touch and lots of technique. We caught plenty of fish for our dinner and it was delicious dredged in flour and spices and pan fried thanks to my husband. I, of course being the one person in the family who does not Particularly Care for fishing, caught the first, most, and biggest fish with my grand total of "TWO". My husband and our sons each caught "One". All in all a great day. Even for this Non-Fisherwoman.
Our youngest is proud of his landlocked sturgeon, a relative of the salmon.
My husband rented a little boat to fish with the boys later in the week. Our oldest son caught two yellow fish and released them.
The big thrill for the boys was they got to drive the boat.
Thank you for sharing in my vacation, it was wonderful to be together in so much peace and natural beauty. Even fishing.

it looks chilly! but super pretty!
Wow, the mountain is beautiful!! Can't beat that view.
You know, I never understood what sort of skill it takes to fish. Seems like you just sit there with your line in the water to me. I mean, I'm sure there must be some, as it is a SPORT... Selecting the right lure? Personally I'd rather go shopping. But the relaxation does look quite wonderful!
Wow. That picture of Mount Shasta is beautiful. Looks like you were in an amazing spot.
Congrats on your big catch! ; )
I like fishing, but I never catch anything. That's OK, though, since I don't like to eat fish!
That looks like it was a fabulous vacation.

I happen to be camping at the moment (yay, portable wifi!) and those fish look yummy.
What awesome views you had while fishing. And really....wearing hoodies and fleece in the SUMMER? The last time we fished (before Mr. Miles) we were sweating!!!
