Memorial Weekend

Annual "Waide Family" Fishing Trip

Dworshak Lake

Paige with, snack #12, waiting for a fish to bite!

Every Memorial Weekend, for as long as I can remember, the Waide family has gone fishing on my dad's boat at Dworshak Lake.  This was Paige's 1st time going on this annual fishing trip (mostly due to Papa's lack of patience). Well, Paige fit in just perfectly and actually caught 3 fish all by herself.  She really enjoyed the trip and took care of her own pole, reeling it in and letting it out.  We were all very proud of her!  Papa said, "she still needs to work on actually touching the fish and putting on her own maggot, but she did great!"  Her mama still doesn't do those things so I told him not to get his hopes up :) 

Uncle Tim, Marge, Paige and Papa Bill

Each year, my Uncle Tim travels over from Bellingham, WA and Marge comes down from Spokane.  Our total fish count was 34 this year.  Quite a bit lower from previous years but we still had lots of fun!
