Crawdad Fishing

Earlier today Huntley and I decided to go for a walk and feed the ducks. Unfortunately the ducks didn't want anything to do with us but in the meantime we found out our favorite little duck pond also happened to be infested with crawdads. So when Chris got off the river we loaded up some stinky old meat and did a little crawdad fishin.

Chris and I had a blast trying to get the little buggers in the bucket and watching them fight and go crazy over the bait. Huntley on the other had seemed more interested in the bait. I guess this is one critter she won't be interested in.

Birthday Fish

Lately we've been going out to Antelope Flat to fish for big fat spawning rainbows. Well actually Huntley falls asleep on the drive out so Chris fishes while I watch from the truck with the sleeping baby. Not that I mind because I love watching him fish, picture Brad Pitt on River Runs Through It. Anyways for Chris's birthday he wanted to go fishing and he wanted a pic with him, Huntley, and a fish. Of course of all the nights Huntley stayed awake the wind had to be blowing like a hurricane and the Gorge resembled the ocean. Huntley hates the wind and I hate the affects the wind has on Huntley. In order to fulfill Chris's birthday wish we sat in the truck and watched him catch a monster bow, left the truck to go see the fish and have his dream picture. The only bad thing was the pic struggled since I was hurrying and Huntley was more fascinated with the fish then smiling for the camera. At least we gave him what he wanted, mabey next year will be a little more idealistic.
