DescriptionA family cooks trout beside Holy Ghost Creek in New Mexico. A woman holds a fish over a cast iron cooking pan and a youg boy walks toward her. He is wearing chest-high waders. A man is standing with a fishing net in the water in the background. There are trees around the area. A typed caption on the back of the photograph reads, "Fishing is family fun in the Land of Enchantment! Here on the banks of the Holy Ghost Creek, a tributary of the Pecos River, there will soon be a pan full of trout for some hungry vacationers. There are many trout streams in New Mexico, stocked regularly by the State Game and Fish Department."
