Fish On at Strawberry 1-26-08

8 of us spent a beautiful day on the ice at Strawberry. All of us caught fish and had a wonderful time. The temperature was about 20 degrees which is balmy for the berry.
Dad with the only keeper and award for the smallest fish of the day.
Andy "rookie" Collins with the big fish of the day.
Me with by far the prettiest fish of the day.

We Bid Farewell

What a beautiful sunset to end the great waterfowl season we had this year
I look forward to many more years in the marsh with my sons
This was a first on the last day of the season. We got checked by the fish and game. No citations issued as we were all legal. Even Todd
All legal here Fish Cops. Chief wasn't happy about the visit by the DWR and let their dog know it. As soon as they came they were on their way out.

Winding Down

With the season winding down we took advantage of this past Saturday to get out again
The futures so bright
We enjoy eating Sunday night duck almost as much as hunting them
Huge thanks to Todd who smells his house up each week with the aroma of cooked duck.

Late Night Ride

After our last storm the OH2 rough riders decided to have a reunion snowmobile ride. The powder was deep up on Squaw Peak.
We got stuck a few times but we had the mountain and fresh powder to ourselves. From left to right-Ed Godinez,Tavis Albertson, Andrew "bagpipes" Graham
