Another Morning Of Fishing And Photography

On Friday, a couple of days ago, I was lucky to get out again on my buddy Blake's fishing boat for another morning of fishing and photography. We started right at sunrise, it was more foggy out than colorful, but it still made for some nice photos.

Stampede Reservoir is about a 20 minute drive from my house and it is my favorite local lake for fishing. It might not be quite as beautiful as nearby Donner Lake or Lake Tahoe, but it is kept well stocked with Kokanee salmon and trout. Kokanee Salmon is my favorite local fish for eating. They might not be quite as big as the Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, Cutthroat Trout or Mackinaw that are also in the lake, but the Kokanee are by far the tastiest local fish.

Of course, when I go fishing, I almost always bring my Canon 5DS R camera along for potential photos. Even though the sunrise never really exploded with color, I was very happy with some of the foggy shoreline shots.
