Our Trip to Upper Foster Lake in September 2005

(click on the pictures and links to see full-sized photos and movies)

The crew this year is John, John H. (Forrest), Torsten (the large one), Ron Sack (agiuia), Aldo (Waldo Peterson),
(Sponge) Bob, D(oo)wight, Bennie, Robin, Dick (Pedro), Jeff and Larry (Nick at Night)

Check out this motley crew!

Nice Trout!

Forrest catches a fish!

Ooops, someone forgot to tie up the boats...

Johnny to the rescue, but we still have to figure out who flunked knot tying in the boy scouts...

 

After an investigation, Ron determines John was the culprit and his sentence is to wear the dunce cap.

Forrest with another fish.

Gotta love that Canadian lure!

Bob and I marvel over these interesting rock formations.

Jeff lands a nice pike.

After a lengthy and challenging fight (including several runs, pole hand-offs and a line wrapped around the propeller), I land this fat beauty.  It's 43 inches and weighs well over 20 lbs.

Spongebob phones home.

John and Forrest whip up an awesome shore lunch.

Chop, Forrest, Chop!

Come and get it while it's hot!

Our first nice day and Waldo says, "let's drink on it!"

A magnificent end to a magnificent day.

These guys really know how to celebrate!

Our last day and guess what we run across...

A moose! (It's a turdy incher)

It takes one look at us and tries to get a way.

Johnny puts the hammer down and the chase is on.

The moose thinks it's going to outswim us.

The moose tries to reach the other shore, but...

Johnny heads him off at the pass.

The moose tries to outrun us.

Check out these quick-time movies of the moose swimming
