Sublette Ranch
Ice Fishing at Miramonte

|
Along with our neighbor and llama-owner, Mike Laird, Steve met Harley and Nathan Metz on Thursday 12/28 at Vega Reservoir (on the Grand Mesa), but didn't have the camera. No photos from that trip.
They enjoyed a great day of ice fishing, catching about 100 fish between the 4 of them!

Steve, Lucy and Mike took Barb, Sean and Laurie for some more ice fishing at Miramonte on Friday. Miramonte Reservoir is about a 1.5 hour drive south of Sublette Ranch, near Norwood, Colorado.

Here Sean shows how to use his new Christmas auger! It must have done the job since they were pulling fish out of those holes all day!

Look at the bend in that rod! Steve must have a BIG one hooked...
It was a beautiful, sunny day. The fish were biting and the wind wasn't. It was another perfect Colorado ice fishing day!
