Arizona Trip

Postby thtsarumr » November 12th, 2008, 11:59 am

Since there is no Arizona thread I'll put this here.

Sorry, this trip was back in late October and have just been too busy to get it posted.

The Family and I went up to the White Mountains on the Apache Inian reservation in Arizona with hopes of catching a few Apache trout. No luck. Caught a ton of Rainbows though. The lakes were boiling all day long. The rivers and streams were cold. I was the only one to hook up but they family still loves wathing me land fish. Enjoy.

Nice Blu... Very Nice. Love seeing the family out on the water together.
Fishing is the most wonderful thing I do in my life, barring some equally delightful unmentionables.

Nice family shots and glad to see you are keeping them involved. I remember only too well when my two daughters were that size. Enjoy!
