Photograph of Agnes Whitaker posing with a string of blues gills and crappies caught during a trip to Big Bear Lake. Agnes Whitaker stands at center, between 2 cars, and looks down towards the fish she holds. The fish dangle from a string that Agnes holds out in front of her. To the left of her, a car (partial view) is parked. It is viewed close-up at an angle from the rear and the side. It faces towards the back of the image. To the right of her, another car (partial view) is parked. It is viewed close-up at an angle from the side, facing towards the back of the image. A pine tree stands in the near distance behind and to the left of Agnes. Tall grasses dotted by pines stretch into the background, where a building sits behind Agnes. Silhouetted hills rise in the far distance.
