I went fishing on the Wisconsin River with my brother-in-law and a couple of his friends. This will be my first posting in the “Travel” category.  Although, I have some other travel stuff to get in here I am starting with this trip.

We stayed at the River’s Edge Resort. I highly recommend it. Great accommodations, right on the river.  Here’s their link so you can check on the particulars.

The fishing report?  Uhmmm, nothing. I had a hit that I lost about 6 feet from the boat and that was it. 2 hours on Friday and 6 to 7 hours on Saturday.  One hit. I could hardly contain the excitement.

These pictures will attest to how chilly it was. Here’s Scott (in the camouflage) and Ted.  I believe Scott is pondering “Where are the fish?”

I wanted to show this picture next to show some perspective as to where I was for the upcoming shot..  I climbed to the top of one the cliffs/bluffs.

So, perched from the same location I whipped out the zoom and took this shot of Dean fishing from our boat on the shore. I couldn’t find a spot where I could take a picture without foliage getting in the way. Sometimes nature doesn’t cooperate.  It was also very important that I didn’t slip.

Just an early morning shot as we were shipping out.  I now remember that I also took some film shots so I should get those developed, hey?

Would it be possible to get through a page without poker coming up?  Maybe.  Someday. Not today.

After the sun has set we pull out the poker chips and start playing in the bar.  Just as we’re gonna wrap up the poker 2 ladies stop by and inquire as to whether they can join in. We have no problem getting the chips back on the table.  This is really the only reason I’m bringing poker up. Poker has been very good to me.  In more ways than one.

Here’s Krissa on the left (I have no idea if that is how she spells her name) who’s so focused she won’t even pause to pose. It worked, she was the big winner. Stacy, on the other hand is willing to mug.
