Back to Garrison We Go!

Headed home after being gone for 38 days fishing for smallmouth bass every day.The days we weren't fishing, we were driving. We look forward to this each year. This is our third year of chasing the smallies. Only thing that would have made it more complete would have been if Kevin and Kerry could have joined us in Big Bay de Noc. But because their home was destroyed in the May tornado, they weren't  able to make it. This means we'll have to make up for it next year.

 

 We traveled back to Garrison in hopes to catching more Mille Lacs beauties.

 Instead, we caught trash fish like this big old toothy, slimy Northern Pike.

 Two spotted lower extremities.

 Every morning has its own special beauty.

 And we're off into the sunrise.

The heavens are breathtaking~

One happy camper, but it's not a keeper. This guy was released!

Meers, Sioux Falls, Mille Lacs, Round Lake, Clearwater Lake, Woman Lake, Little Boy, Mule, Blackwater and Wabedo Lake. Then off to Big Bay de Noc on Lake Michigan. Finished up there and off to Green Bay, Sturgeon Bay, FishCreek, Moonlight Bay, Baileys Harbor and  Rowley's Bay. Couldn't get enough of Garrison so we drove back to Mille Lacs and fished some more..Enjoyed meeting people along the way and seeing the ones we have visited before. One of the many reasons I love my life.. Now we're almost home and all I can think about is our Grand-babies big and small! :)
