FISHING POND

THE OLE CANYON POND
HOME OF THE GIGGLING GUPPY
In the depths of Red Rock Canyon, where the sun's rays barely dare to tread, lies a hidden pool known as Whisper Water. Here, among the cool, crystal-clear depths, swims the legendary Giggling Guppy. This fish is no ordinary creature; it's said to have been born from a droplet of laughter left by a mischievous sprite who once danced upon the canyon's rim. The Guppy is small, no bigger than a child's palm, but its scales shimmer with the colors of a rainbow, changing hue with every chuckle it emits. The legend speaks of the Giggling Guppy's incredible power: it can make anyone who hears its laughter forget all their worries, filling them with joy and a lightness of heart. Many have sought this fish, hoping to capture its mirthful melody, but the Guppy is as playful and elusive as the laughter it spreads. Adventurers from far and wide have come to Whisper Water, armed with nets and promises of eternal happiness. They would sit by the pool, waiting for the sound of the Guppy's laugh, which is said to be as infectious as a sneeze at a silent retreat. One day, a particularly determined explorer, known for his solemn disposition, decided he would be the one to see the Giggling Guppy. He spent days by the pool, his face set in a permanent frown, listening intently for any sign of the fish. Finally, on the seventh day, he heard it—a soft, bubbling giggle that seemed to come from the water itself. His heart leaped; he peered into the pool, and there it was, the Giggling Guppy, its scales flashing in a brilliant display of colors. Overjoyed, the explorer reached out to catch the fish, but as he did, the Guppy looked up, its tiny eyes twinkling with mischief. It let out one last, loud guffaw, and in that moment, the explorer realized his mistake. For you see, the Giggling Guppy has one rule: if you try to catch it, you'll end up laughing so hard you'll fall into Whisper Water, fully clothed. And so, with a splash that echoed through the canyon, the explorer found himself completely soaked, laughing uncontrollably as the Guppy swam away, its chuckles fading into the distance. The moral of the story? Sometimes, the best way to catch joy is not to chase it at all but to let it come to you. And remember, at Red Rock Canyon Adventure Park, the real adventure is in the unexpected laughter you might share with the Giggling Guppy.



"We caught some blue gill and a couple bass. I was surprised at how many bites I got so much so that I missed quite a few of them lol"
