I was back on Lake Wenatchee on Monday, and although I put the fewest fish in the boat, it was my favorite day on the lake sockeye fishing. Along with me were my neighbors, the Fiske family. They are a very active outdoor family, and fishing is a part of it. Father Dan and Mom Holly make sure that their kids get to enjoy the outdoors. They paddle board, surf, hike, camp, and fish on the east and west side of the mountains. I have wanted to get them out on my boat and finally made it happen. Their son Calder is in love with fishing of all kinds and has caught a number of fish from a paddle board with his Dad. He landed the first sockeye of the day and was thrilled. His little sister Nevada got one soon after. I was impressed with their ability to reel in their fish. They required very little assistance. Calder landed another fish before the bite slowed. I gave each of them a turn at driving the boat before we headed for the dock. The Fiske’s are great neighbors and I hope I get a chance to take the whole family out again very soon.
