Bear Hunting Bonus
One of my favorite “bear camp” pass times is fishing the beaver ponds for brookies! This picture is of little brother Darryl and myself, as we do our “grocery” shopping for supper. Brook trout, baked potatoes. corn, and green beans was on the menu for this particular day, during last years bear hunt. I can still taste those crispy, tender, morsels of lightly breaded and seasoned, fresh lemon squeezed, cast iron skillet fried, “Big Creek” caught trout, as I write! Oh what a wonderful “bonus” these fish add to a week of bear hunting.
No matter where I hunt, my little compact spinning rod goes with me. I have caught 2-3 pound brookies in Quebec, mountain brookies in Colorado, deep pool fish in Tennessee, and fast water trout in Ontario, and I’m telling you they all taste the same-”delicious!” Take a hint from me this summer. Where ever you take your vacation this year,I’m willing to bet your within a few miles of some good trout fishing. Do your family a favor, and take your fishing gear with you. You’ll be glad you did.
