stuco Loc: Northern Utah - Salt Lake City

My brother flew into town Friday evening and stayed with us for the night. His wife was meeting up with him on Saturday afternoon to continue on to a get together with their kids. I saw my surgeon on Thursday. He said I could start weening off the boot on my foot by wearing shoes for an hour the first day and adding an hour each day. Well of course my brother and I figured that meant we could go fishing early Saturday morning.

We got up early, found a lake we could drive right up to the shore of and fished for a few hours. It was in the thirties when we pulled up to the lake, but the sun came up just as we were getting set up and it turned into a delightful day.

Apparently, we found the nursery because we caught nothing but small trout, but we did catch trout. We probably caught and released ten fish in the two or three hours we were there. I figured I wouldn’t be able to fish until spring, so this was a huge bonus. My soul needed a day fishing. To get that and the chance to hang out with my brother was way better than anything the doctor or my physical therapist have done for me lately.

Of course my phone stayed in my pocket all day, but I did get a picture of one fish and one of the lake.

Thanks my friend! There certainly is a lot of desert in Utah, but there’s a lot of beautiful places too.

I hope you’re doing well. It’s great to hear from you. My wife and I have benefited greatly from your prayers. Thank you!

Thanks Cam! It’s amazing how therapeutic a couple hours fishing can be. I hope you’re getting some of that therapy as well.

I’m in the process of trying to arrange for a road trip. SaltLake is on the way to Washington and Idaho(family) and not that far away so we may get to meet in the spring.

That will be awesome.

I totally agree me and my brother went fishing on Galveston Bay this morning, didn't catch anything worth mentioning but had a great time together

I glad you could get out with your brother too. Saying you didn’t catch anything worth mentioning says to me you did catch some. Sounds like a great day to me! Time spent with family fishing, and even not fishing, is precious time.
