Our daughter Amy and her husband Sam came home to spend part of spring break fishing with their sons, Luke and Isaac. (Their daughter Grace was on a mission trip to Memphis.) We spent 2 days at this special stream that's restricted to children under 16 years of age. It's a beautifully serene place for families to enjoy this wonderful sport - and for proud grandparents to pull out their cameras!

(This creek is a "catch and release" stream, so all the fish are turned back into the water. Isaac actually caught the biggest of the trip, but Dad dropped it in the water while trying to pose for the shot!)

Wonderful pictures, and nice memories for the boys to have. It must be like an adventure to try for the trout, and catch them! Ole365 · 2010-03-24: 18:31

Great series of our grandsons. Good-looking boys - must have some good genes in those waders! lgnelson · 2010-03-24: 21:06

Oh yes, I can see the great good looking genes Larry. Precious, so precious. Everyone is happy, including the fishes that could get back to the water, all they had to do was to pose for a quick picture :) ????? · 2010-03-24: 21:46

Wonderful set!!! agandia · 2010-03-25: 07:40

How fun, what a thrill for Luke; good size un too! I grew up in Wyoming and thought excellent fishing was a normal part of life. Then we lived in Indiana for 3 years and were just amazed at how dirty the rivers were in some parts of the country; so glad to see they're not all like that. catch and release? We eat 'em round here ;~) urmysunshine · 2010-03-25: 10:00

ps- what a handsome family you have!!~ urmysunshine · 2010-03-25: 10:00

Beautiful.... and opening day comes soon! There are no native trout in this county, but the state does well in stocking a few selected waters.... I can hardly wait! BwannaDon · 2010-03-25: 10:03

That creek really is beautiful. Some of my favorite shots came from near there, below the dam of fly fishermen in the fog. Looks like y'all had a good time! jtnelso · 2010-03-25: 13:08
