Well Rick and Lucy were back again. They had a good trip. They caught 34 fish over three days with an
amazing 14 fish over 22 inches. Rick
caught the most fish, but Lucy got the biggest.
They are so much like Dick and Jane.
I have said it before and I will say it again. It is such a treat to guide a husband and
wife on such a special trip to fish for Brook Trout on the Nipigon system. Dick came first many years ago and brought
his wife Jane as his fishing partner.
After a while their son Rick started to come too with his wife
Lucy. I think about their family a
lot. Lately I have been wondering if
there is anybody in Michigan who have caught more trophy Brook Trout than Dick
and Jane. And now that Rick and Lucy have
been coming for the last few years and are compiling some pretty good numbers,
I now wonder if there is any other family in Michigan who have caught more
trophy Brook Trout than the Bjorem family.
I doubt it!
I heard Rick was on Michigan Out of Doors TV show fishing
for Steelhead. Congratulations on that
accomplishment. Rick I would also like
to congratulate you on following your father’s footsteps in taking your wife on
a very special fishing trip. Not all men
are willing to fish with their wives and children, but more should do it. I remember when I was a kid, some of my
finest memories are fishing with my father.
And now that I am older and have kids, some of my best recent memories
are fishing with my kids.
Thank you Rick and Lucy for being good company. I look forward to seeing you again next year.
PS. They each got a
25 incher. Lucy’s had a bigger
girth. It was almost 7.5 pounds and
Ricks was just over 6 pounds. Either way
as you can tell from the pictures, they were both gorgeous fish. Which were
released.
