Title: Little Pathfinder's Fishing Trip
Post by: Pathfinder101 on July 06, 2010, 12:28:17 PM: Took the family up to Kettle Falls this weekend to visit Grandma and do a little fishing. Little Pathfinder had a great time. First we discovered worms, which are right up there with fish on the "cool scale". Went to Deadman Creek, and fished a few pools (not as much as I had planned-the brush was too thick for the little guy to negotiate), then went up to Davis Lake for something that would be a bit easier. No luck there, as some bad weather moved in, so we called it quits for the day.
The next morning my sister and her family showed us a spot on the Colville River where we could catch some Browns. No bigguns, but we sure had a blast. I think it is safe to say that Little Pathfinder is hooked on fishing... ;)

Gonna be a banner year for huckleberries (unless a hailstorm knocks them off or something). The bushes were loaded. Of course, just like everything else over here, they look like they are about 2 weeks behind schedule. No bear sign, but we didn't hike much with the little guy.
