That glowing green stuff on my finger would be the permanent power bait smudge from baiting up so many hooks for them trout.

I have no idea if that is a pic of a pumpkin seed, I don't know what all these panfish are, we're just catching them. I heard from a local that there are catfish, bluegill, sunfish, crappie, largemouth and trout in that lake we were at, and I think we've caught most of them, except a catfish. The agenda has been set by the kids this afternoon, we're going back there. It's friggin blowing like crazy again now so no more out on the big lake today for awhile. We caught no Macks this morning in a short lived excursion due to wind, I'm not sure what the deal is, I'm used to super easy fishing for them, but that has not happened yet. The big smallie my daughter caught was an unexpected thing. I sent the kiddos out on the dock alone, well 5 of them, and I was in playing on a Wii. Then I hear Lexi yelling, "I got one, I got one", I go running out there thinking it was a big sqaw or just stuck on the bottom cuz she's reeling as fast as she can, and the little rod is double over. I get out there and see the thing going all over in the water. I yell up towards the condo's, "get a net, and the camera." Over and over agian I yelled it. No one ever came. I had her walk off the dock while fighting the fish, walk along the cement bulkhead, then bring it in on the steps by the pool. Jennifer came out from a downstairs condo (ours is upstairs) and gets all excited as the fish is being held up to show some other people. Then back it went. We've caught a lot of nice ones here over the years, but that was by far the biggest. I'm estimating when I say close to 7 pounds, but it was a chunk, and when you get that compared to most of the ones you get, it looked huge. When we go out in the boat, or on a drive somewhere else the camera is always with me, here, at the condo, it is usually forgot about unless an event happens, then it's a madhouse to try and find it quickly.

That chick in the pic is 27, big time into fishing and showing off her butt...

I'll just place a pic here and there of what I got yesterday since this is about fishing in Chelan, or maybe I'll make a new post over on "is there life".

Today is definately a keeper day, and a fish dinner tonight.
