Diane Dad Mike and a Pike Saskatchewan 1972

Diane Dad Mike and a Pike Saskatchewan 1972, originally uploaded by VancouverDoug.

I love this shot on numerous levels. First are the expressions on my brother Mike's 7 year old face and that of Dad holding up the good sized (aka a family meal sized) Saskatchewan pike. Second is the bell bottoms on my sister Diane in the background - ahhh the '70s. Third is the recollection of how totally delicious fresh pike were - mmmmm. I really miss that meal.

My best guess is that this picture was taken during the mid spring in 1972 in what was for certain Saskatchewan. Best fishing on the planet.
