"Let's go back to the lake in the rocks" said my wife, so today we went back to the lake in the rocks with some friends. The climb in is steep as ever...

A mountain goat looked down on us while we were fishing.

Lots of rising fish which were happy to take a size 14 black gnat wet fly cast by a Granger 8642. A few fish turned away from 4lb test. The two year olds were about 9-10 inches. The 6 year olds were about a foot.

Pretty rainbows with a red stripe along the side. This is probably the only mountain lake I can fish without waders or a float tube.

My friend Greg playing a fish at the lake...

There was a mountain goat on the rocks that day also. Sometimes good things stay the same.

Dru Bru Ales and cider on the way home. Life is good.
