The Fishing Was Incredible!

Day Two

Last night we found an amazing campsite with tons of room and a huge slab that served as a perfect table. We were in Pickerel Narrows. It's a mass of islands where several bodies of water come together. We saw some traffic through here. But still the fishing was incredible. We found a point we called "Pike Point," where each time we trolled past it we got a huge pike! We found walleye, lake trout and of course smallmouth. We were amazed to find out that we could just dip a cup in the water and drink it! The water out here is that clean!

Tonight at sunset there were dozens of Loons swirling around in packs and making a huge ruckus. What a cool noise! And they just keep going all night. It's so eerie. That leaves a deep impression on your memory.

Food Is Everything
Out Here!

The food is awesome. The steak we had last night on the open flames was one of the best steaks I ever had. Fortunately I knew how important it is to bring spices. Spices make things exciting, because food is exciting. All our food is fresh at this point, which is great because that means we're shedding some weight in the packs.
