Rainy Lake Fishing Trip

[Dbl]

Spent the last week on one of the finest fishing lakes in Minnesota, Rainy Lake. Here are just a few images from the week. We were catching fish so I didn't have all that much time for photos

#1 Fish on!

#2 My biggest of the week, thanks for the photo Pete!

#3 One of our party waiting for the rain to move in.

#4 Some color was beginning to show last week.

#5 Some sun-splashed color.

#6 A few beautiful sunsets.

#7

#8 Until next year, good friends, great fishing what more could you possibly want!

Looks like a great time Dan. That shot of you with the fish looks a little like Wilson from "Home Improvement".

[Dbl]

LOL, that was my intent Mike! Got to keep my identity secret! I should have photo shopped that hood so it covered a bit more!

Nice fish, Wilson. Nice shots to boot. It must be tough for fishing to be so good that you don't have much time to pick up the camera.

Awesome shots Dan. My favorites are #1 and #8. Love the way the light reflects through the fishing line in #8.

Those look great! Really liked the 6th one. Love how the light bounce of the lower clouds as the sun sets.

All great! I'm envious.

Thanks everyone, if you've never had the chance to fish up there make it goal, you won't regret it!

I love rainy lake, fished it alot this summer and the middle of july was my first time ever fishing it! I vote for Rainy Lake as one of the best places on earth. I wish it was next July right now.

I thought that was Tom Selleck, but it's you! Sportin' the stache these days eh? Those types of trips put years back on our lives, nice images.

Funny guy Mike, that may be the first time someone has made that comparison! You only get to see half the stache, no changes there! Part of my mystery look

Did you fly over our wing spot in Savage last night? You missed a good time Mr. Selleck! Swartzy was in rare form!

[Dbl]

Yes I did and I waved my wings! Too bad I missed it
