Decided to harvest some of the fish today. We took out around 60-70 and invited some friends around to help us catch them. The kids had a ball.

I had the good fortune to stumble across a fellow blogger who is a photographer. He and his family came out and spent a few hours with us looking at the system. We hooked a few trout and he took some AMAZING photos.

I've been very lazy lately...but I am going to try my best to get back into it.

I blame the crap weather we have had the last 6 months.
