We had this thrill in May of 2006 at Mayfield Lake as we were driving by.
I would not swear it was a rainbow trout he caught, but the Eagle came
to the edge of the Lake just as we were passing, grabbed his fish, and
flew away. It was an even bigger thrill because my 11 year old grandson
and 2 year old granddaughter were with us and just happened to be
looking out the window! Certainly an experience they will never forget!
