Fishing at Collins Lake!

We took our first fishing trip this last saturday to Collins Lake. After many years of Jason in school, we've decided that we are definately getting out this summer... A LOT! Saturday was the warmest day of this year thus far at a whopping 89 degrees and we knew it would be a perfect time to go fishing for the first time as a family. We really needed a happy, positive, fun, no drama, no stress, relaxing family outing.... With this being a very sick pregnancy for me and the majority of the month of March we had the stomach flu and high fever, we just needed to get away! So we drove an hour north of here, (30 mins east of Oroville), to Collins Lake. We had heard that a 1-2 weeks before, they had planted a ton of trout. So we thought it would be the perfect time to go. Well, to our surprise, they had only planted the trout 2 days before we were there. There were a lot of people on the banks fishing and even more out on the lake. To our knowledge, not one fish was caught. That includes us too. We fished for about 6 1/2 hours and didn't catch a thing. But it's all good cause we had a blast hanging out, enjoying the outdoors, and enjoying spending time together. My lil bro Derek, lil sis Cami, and neice Shelby came up too. It was a wonderful day and we were thankful to have a happy & no stress day! Here are some pics from the day.... hope you enjoy them!! PS We plan on going fishing a lot this summer, so if anyone is interested in going, let us know!
