Onion and Blue Lakes Camping Trip

Last weekend Kade and I took a camping trip before school started for me. We decided to go all the way up to Onion and Blue Lakes up by Denio. It was a 2 1/2 hour drive including a hour drive through a rough 4-wheel drive road. But it was worth it. It turned out to be a great camping and fishing site. When we got there on Friday evening we started fishing Onion Lake. Kade reeled in two big rainbow trout within ten minutes, but I never got one. A little later while I was back at our tent, Kade caught another one. The next morning we packed up our camp and drove to the Blue Lakes trailhead and hiked up to the lakes. Blue Lake was really pretty. It was surrounded by trees and had really clear water. A family was already up at the lake swimming and jumping off the rocks. We fished for a while there and caught two smaller trout. We were going to let both go but one of the fish was going to die so we kept it. That evening we hiked back down to the truck and drove home. It was a great relaxing weekend and now we have four fish to eat :)
