Fishin' at Devils Lake

Yesterday was a beautiful day, and Chris had to work later then he normal. I decided the kids and I were going to go do something special, so I went and got my fishing license, and took the kids fishing. It was quite an exciting evening at Devils Lake. We caught a blue gill here while trying to avoid smushing all of the newly "hatched" dragonfly's were emerging from their nymph stage; the were everywhere. We watched a heron gulp down a fairly good size fish, avoided a run in with a family of geese, and saw a raccoon scurry off up the bluffs. The absolute highlight of the evening was Jasmine catching a blue gill who, while on her fishing line, nearly escaped being lunch for a 11 inch bass. Jas required a little help getting both fish in, and kept exclaiming "I knew I was going to catch a big fish just like Papa!"
