While it may not be the greatest photo ever taken, it was my second son's first BWCA trip and he LOVED the fishing. These were taken in West Pike Lake, in the shallows between the island and the southern shore.

With the enjoyment showing on both of your faces it's at least one of the greatest!

My "non-fisherman". He catches three lakers before I could even get my line wet, and then says "I'm bored"! He is a good canoe tripper, though.
