Fishing in July

Here are the two fishers from this summer. We rented a private cabin just north of Bemidji on Beltrami Lake for a week. Needless to say we ate fish for supper every single day!




































































There's a good story attached to this last picture. It was too dark to clean the fish so Rick hung the stringer over the dock for the night. When we came out the next morning, only one of five fish was on the stringer and the carcass of one was scattered around the sandy bottom. All we can figure is that some animal helped himself to the bottom fish on the stringer, letting the rest slide off and swim away, with only the the top one being too small to slide over the ring.
Somebody had a good meal!
