We had a great time, once we started catching fish! After some off road action getting us up the mountain we stopped at the trail head. Upon getting out of the truck and being attacked my swarming mosquitoes We realized we didn't have any repellent. It had been a long hard drive to get that far so we decided to go for it and make the one mile hike Into the lake where the mosquitoes just got worse! We weren't catching fish, but we didn't give up, we just kept on trying until finally the stars fell into alignment and we caught two beautiful tiger trout which we took back to the family reunion to share!

That is huge. That's bigger than mine. Yours is a lot bigger than mine isn't it?
It's a lot longer. I think yours is fatter. I don't think so.
Well either way they're healthy fish. That's a lot of fish meat right there.
Oh geez. Oh he's so close. Oh man look at that tubber. Look at that tub.
Holy cow. That's awesome. Is that cool? Yeah. I really want to eat it.
I'm going to start him like this and then we'll be able to rotate him
and I'll be able to adjust the location of the firebox.
Since we've come this far we should probably throw a line in even if we get
eaten alive by these mosquitoes but it sure is tempting to just to run for the truck
and then go back down to the desert but this is pretty beautiful. Really nice.
Wow look at that. Let's see if I can get this on there and I'll use the fire stick
to hold it up. I'm going to move some of these hot coals on this level.
Hopefully I'll catch a fish with the first cast. Now we can run for the truck.
I mean I was just gonna adjust it a little bit. Okay. Oh there you go. Yeah.
Let's put it right there. Looks tasty. Oh yeah. Let's get a little lemon in that
meat right there. Right where it's flaking.
Look at that. Our life depends on that fire.
Somebody had already built the fire here so in desperation we built the fire in their
same spot. Maybe they built their fire for the same reason we built ours.
Some mosquitoes. I just inhaled one. A mosquito? Yeah.
Yeah it is helpful. It's very good. Is it good? Here Sean this is your fish.
What do you think of that? It's so good. Oh my gosh that's good. That was great.
I couldn't think of how to eat it better.
Yeah it's definitely not overcooked. No.
Actually this is a fun place. It's so good. By the beeps it has fresh trout.
What do you think? It's dang good. That was a good idea.
Well we might have to stab about one million of those skewers through there.
I've got a flying bubble on and I'm gonna wait out here a little bit so I have some casting room.
Mosquitoes are getting thick again. I'm gonna have to run for the fire.
I didn't get a bite with my fly.
Oh look at that. Holy smokes.
That looks awesome. Look at that fish.
That's good.
Yeah that's really good.
I think I'm gonna transfer it over onto the firebox you know on the grill.
First I'm gonna get a bite right here.
Yeah fishy fishy fishy.
I used to pray for fish when I was a kid. Did you? Just pray my little heart out.
Hey whatever works man.
Wow that's really good. Oh there's nothing like a fresh caught fish. Thank you so much.
Yeah try that. On the firebox. Just pull off the piece. Just grab that.
I'm gonna grab you another bite. Oh not bad. Oh wow. Not bad.
Where'd you guys go to? Oh look at that nice big piece.
Are you sure you want to give that up? Oh yeah we got lots. All right.
This is a big fish. Wow.
I'm gonna try one more cast. I sure don't see him.
Max got my line. Oh wow. I got one. Nice. Wow. Oh yeah that's a good fish. Oh wow.
Oh goodness. He's fighting like a different fish. He's I think he's a tiger trout.
Just by the way he's fighting he's like he's fighting like a like a big old fat.
Oh my gosh look at that. Oh wow. Holy. Wow Steve. Oh my gosh. That is a fish.
Holy mackerel. Oh come on. No way. Don't come off. Don't come off. No way. Oh my gosh.
Holy. Holy. That's enough food for both of us. That's the biggest fish I've ever seen.
Oh yeah. There's lots more.
That's good. That's good.
Colin can't get over it. He won't leave me alone. It's really good. I'm sitting here
standing here waiting for a bite because Colin won't leave me alone. Yeah I bet.
Because her brother had just caught it. Oh right. Yeah.
That's really good. That was good. Sean just got one. Now I got to be ready with the net.
Did he loosen up? Loosened up yeah. Or he's swimming towards you. He's still there.
He's not pulling at all though is he? Not now. He's swimming right to us. He's just swimming right in.
He's still on though. Oh he's still on. Good. Good. Good. Oh there he goes. I'm gonna roll up my
pants so I can step out here. Okay. Okay. I don't want to risk not getting him.
Oh don't let him get in that tree. Right. Right. Oh I love that when they take the drag.
Oh this was a good idea Steve. It makes it all worth it doesn't it when you catch a big fish.
We almost left remember. We did. We're like ready to just go home.
Come on baby. Come on baby. Come on. It's a decent fish. Oh I'm sure. Nothing pulls the
drag like that unless it's. Oh it's going for that tree. You need to go above it or below it.
Dang it. Oh he's going below it. You're in luck. Oh he's bigger than the one I caught. Holy he's
huge. Holy. There he goes. Oh he's under this tree. Yeah. Oh hold on. Just take your time.
He's still under it. We're still okay. There we go. He doesn't want to come in. No. No. No. Now
we're okay. Here he comes. Here he comes. Here he comes. The closer you get. Oh that is a big fish.
Harder he fights. Look at that thing. He's not gonna fit in his net. Oh my gosh. Oh it's okay.
We're okay. We still got the fish. Come on. Come on. You're a little closer. We're almost there.
Oh geez. Oh he's so close. Oh man. Look at that tubber. Look at that tub.
There's one. Some nice big steaks. I like this. Maybe we can have steak sandwiches.
Might just still be a little bit pink. More pink than I want it. I'm just going to put it
on the skin side just a little bit longer. He likes it. Oh there you go. Like he likes it.
There he goes. Slow down. Get it chewed. We'll have room for more in just a second.
You like my trout son? Mm-hmm. Pretty good. That was awesome. Here's my other filet of tiger trout.
Good stuff. Well I'm gonna finish my dinner. Thanks for watching.
