..let's do something different. We went stream fishing. This was the first time Mrs. Shutterwi and I went streaming fishing. Although we have spend many a day fishing in the small lakes here in northern Wisconsin this was something different.
We managed to catch several brook trout like this one. Most were smaller and so we released them. In the section of the stream we were fishing on a seven inch brook trout is legal. This fish was just under eight.
Although we caught another 5 or 6 more fish between us none were big enough to warrant keeping.
Although this single fish was all we brought home it was a great day of fishing. We fried the fish for breakfast and sampled the wonderful flavor of fresh brook trout.
The only thing that would have made it better would have been to cook it at the streams edge in the early morning with coffee brewing on the camp fire and a mist rising from the waters edge. Dandelions.
Circa 1958 a father and his young son on a fishing trip to New Hampshire catching trout and camping. A weekend trip that has lasted a lifetime. Dandelions.
