Heather Lake




Hiked with the scouts today to Heather Lake. What a coincidence! I just happened to have my packrod, cast-a-bubble, and flies with me. I wonder how that happened? I think the scouts are beginning to sense a pattern to our destinations.

Small size 16 yellow humpy was the trick. Caught 2 nice Cutts, a nice rainbow, and a nice hybrid. Two other dads along for the hike caught four fish as well. I think they may come on more hikes with me! Weather was mildly wet intermittently and we had limited boy attention span so we cut the fishing somewhat short, but it was successful. Well worth the 3.25 mile hike in.

Nice fish! That Fenwick pack rod is an antique, but it still does the trick.
