Fishing...


Joan scheduled a guided fishing trip for Dave and Annette with one of our professional guides. She went along with them, I stayed behind to start the packing process - cargo trailer, motorcycle, kayaks, and cleaning all the pine needles and pine cones off the top of the HitchHiker. There is no doubt that they had a LOT more fun than I did.

Heading out...


The fishing was good - they caught 7 fish...


1 cutthroat and 6 lake trout. I took this photo of them all when they got back...


Pat is more than a guide, he is our friend. We invited him to join us for supper - he said he'd like to be more than a guest, offering to cook the trout with his special recipe.

Before supper, I got a fire going in the fire ring while Pat started to prep the fish...


Pat lined the fire ring with the fish...


Pat's recipe calls for stuffing the fish with cream cheese, sun dried tomatoes, lemon, garlic, and other goodies. Getting the fish ready for the table...


Getting ready to eat...


We enjoyed the company and the conversation until the darkness and the cold chased us inside. A great day off; nice to have family and our friend Pat here with us.

Pat's special recipe sounds like a winner. Is there anything about quantity of ingredients that we need to know or is this one of those special recipes that the chef keeps to himself?

Hi Bryan,

Pat shares that recipe with all his guests. I don't have it (since he did the cooking), but I'll get it for you.

Best wishes,
Jim
