She grew up here and has spent countless hours on and around the Lake boating, skiing, and just having fun. Mike and Ash came up yesterday and instead of riding bikes, we went fishing. She said she has never been fishing on Bear Lake from a boat which is true. In the morning, we fished in the wind off of Sweetwater. When the downrigger popped she took the rod and after a long fight, she hauled in and released a 20 pound lake trout.
She said she was is in good shape for hiking but not reeling in a big fish.
In the afternoon we took the pontoon boat across the lake to Cisco Beach. When the downrigger popped again she hooked, caught and released an 8 pound cutthroat. She said that fish was a little easier to reel in. She prides herself has quite an angler now.
Apparently, Ash thinks it is not that hard to catch large, once in a lifetime, trophy fish on Bear Lake. She certainly had fun texting pictures to her friends.
