Entered Smye lake on June 2nd, got a little turned around on Smye a big lake with
lots of islands. All the portages were in good shape until the last one into Wilkie,
spent a couple of hours clearing some blow downs. Camped on Wilkie around the point
from the fly in lodge, they must use this campsite as a fish cleaning and shore lunch
spot. Spent another hour or so cleaning up there mess and removing a lot of fish
remains.
The weather did not cooperate very much lots of wind and rain. The fishing was a
little slow but I did eat fish every day. Made a trip over to Flindt and found the fishing
was better around some swifts. The weather kept me from getting to Gault and
making the small loop back to Flindt,looks like I have a good excuse for going
back in Sept. All in all a good intro to Wabakimi.

Steve - Did you cut those 2 big trees that are at head height on the Smye-Wilkie portage?
I can see that taking quite some time and effort!

Sure did, and on the way back out there was another one to take care of.
While I was on Flindt I had lunch at your favorite campsite, I did steal two
sticks from your nice pile of wood for my new Fire Box stove to boil up some soup

I sure do miss that ol' campsite.
I'm stuck in the city for the foreseeable future. :(
