Fishing with Uncle Steve

When Elisa's brother Steve makes a promise to the boys, he keeps it. He was supposed to have come up a week or two earlier to take the boys fishing, but was stopped due to work. So I'm sitting in my studio giving lessons on Wednesday afternoon and what do I see but the roof of Steve's vintage BMW drive by. A great surprise--in all the daily rush we'd forgotten he was coming.

These pictures show the boys having a good time fishing the next day with Uncle Steve at nearby Lake Gregory (although they had better luck at Lake Arrowhead and Grass Valley Lake the previous day). Steve is a true fisherman, unlike "Cheetos for bait" Daddy.

Elisa took the photos. All I had to do was compile them into a short video and add music. I don't have to own the copyright to put an improvised acoustic rendition of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing" on the video, do I?

Formerly the title of this video was "Fishing with Uncle Steve Using Guns", but there aren't really any guns involved. I was just goofing around trying to see if it would get more views that a plain old fishing video. Some people got really angry at me for that. I guess people who are gung-ho to see fish being killed with guns are just that kind of crowd, eh?

You are right with your description. I'm sure more did watch it because of "with guns".  I found your vid looking for fishing in Grass Valley. Nice pics anyway.

I like your upload. It was something you feel special about and wanted to share. Lake Gregory is our favorite lake to got to around here in San Bernardino.
