Show & Tell 2: Fish!

Jul. 30, 2009 by Keiko Zoll

Show and Tell

It’s that time again. Be sure to see what the other kids are showing off this week!

Once again, I have a camping related S&T post. Larry and I went camping on Burton Island, off the VT coast of Lake Champlain this past weekend. We had an amazing time with lots of firsts: first time camping w/o a tent (we slept under a lean-to with just a mosquito net to cover us), first time camping on an island, first time catching fish- then cleaning and eating them! On to the pics.


This is looking out on Lake Champlain. The weather held up for the most part- rain at night, but hot and sunny during the day.

A nice view of the docks at Burton Island.

Our very sacrilicious marshmallow roasting. It rained the first night, and we REALLY wanted campfire marshmallows, so we roasted them over the tea lights we brought as Shabbos candles… and it totally worked.

We caught three fish! From the top: Sunfish (I cast, but Larry reeled in), Smallmouth Bass (I caught), Yellow Perch (Larry caught). We cleaned and ate them and they were delicious. It was important we catch dinner b/c I forgot to pack Saturday night’s dinner in the cooler!

A perfect end to our weekend: driving home, we saw a kickass thunderhead form a beautiful rainbow 🙂

    This is a great page. Are you perhaps interested in fishing? Our family enjoy fishing in our local lakes and he do a bit of boat fishing in the sea. If you are interested in fishing please be so kind to have a peek at this web-site

    Looks like an amazing trip! And so authentic – you really did have to find your own dinner! Those fish must have tasted delish.

    Sounds like such a fun trip! I've never done camping without a tent, but I think I want to try.

    fish that are caught and cooked out of necessity are always so much tastier than any others! It looks like you had fun.
