JARED BARNES AND CHILDREN

Jared and two of his four

Children

Lily and Luke

Lily caught two beautiful Trout

Luke also caught two Fish

Strawberry Reservoir

The Narrows

Chuck and Jared's father, Don, have been friends since their junior high years in La Canada, California. His mother, Margaret Ann, was my roommate at BYU in the 60s. We skied with his family every year at Brian Head when our children were young and have stayed in contact over the years. Jared is an accomplished golfer and has given Chuck helpful instruction on the golf course. His family is also the source of our greenhouse.

We had a good time fishing with Jared's family on Strawberry yesterday. The children were patient and successful fishermen. Jared is a GREAT Dad! Hopefully they'll bring the rest of the family next time.

TWO LITTLE FISHERWOMEN

Macy and Aubrey

Stayed over night on Friday and fished with us on Saturday

These kids make driving this boat look Easy

It was windy on the open water....

...but, smooth as glass in the meadows, perfect water for Fishing

Note the tiny opening to the Narrows

Aubrey caught the first Trout

Aubrey's fish but held by the brave One

Fishing takes lots of Patience

One of Macy's fish tried to twist Away

Yuck!!!!

We have caught all our fish on Corn Yellow power bait this Summer

However, Macy wanted to try the beautiful Rainbow Bait

She took a sniff and the results are Obvious

We caught our limit and headed for port with Macy at the Wheel*

We had a lovely day with these two Ladies
