I completely believe that the best experiences in life are not complicated. This is a great example. It's the simple joy of watching a young Wyoming girl catch her first fish.
On the bright side, Meeboer Lake has not seen winter kill since an aeration system was installed in 2013, and there are plenty of 13- to 15-inch rainbow trout.
Volunteers came out to help the Wyoming Game and Fish Department stock brook trout into Pole Mountain beaver ponds. There were several buckets and thousands of brookies to go around. These pictures are only from the last lead group.
