Has anyone tried to use an MSR WinPro for a fish fry. Wondering if one stove is enough to cook with a 10 inch cast aluminum Dutch oven. We usually do these over the fire however, that clearly will not happen this year. It appears to be fairly wide and have a lighter flame than many other canister stalls is why I am leaning this way.

Yes. I was in the Quetico last week and used the Wind Pro II for a couple of fish fries. It worked just fine. My Coleman propane suitcase two-burner would no longer light mid-trip; fortunately, I had brought the wind pro II as a back-up given the fire ban.
It’s much, much harder to cook on an msr one-burner versus a Coleman two-burner. Flame control is way better on the wind pro, but the cooking surface is ridiculously small. And of course there is just one burner. So instead of fish and beans or fish and rice, it was fish period.
I purchased a new Coleman propane suitcase model earlier this week. Unless I’m going solo, I’ll always take a two burner Coleman.
