“Wake up, wake up!” My cousin told me.

I looked at my watch to see what time it was. It was 4:00 in the

morning. I got dressed and met my cousin Mike outside my tent. It was a

cold day in the mountains in Colorado. As we grab are rods and reels I

recommend we eat breakfast. My cousin Agrees after a bowl of cereal we

head out. We stop at the truck to get the salmon eggs we are using for bait.

We start about a quarter of a mile walk to lake.

After what seems like thirty minutes we finally make it to the lake.
