Wednesday, June 23, 2010 Partly cloudy, afternoon downpour, rain/storm at night. We decide to do a long day trip through Gun and the Bullets to Moosecamp. We make an early breakfast of pancakes and bacon, mmmm bacon, and begin packing. The paddle out does not go well. Kraig is grumpy because he hasn’t caught many fish. He starts off steering the boat but gives up after Gun. Dean gives us some spinner baits to use as we troll through the Bullets, they are supposed to be filled with cabbage plants and pike. We arrive to find they are not that weedy. Within about a half hour I give up on the spinner and user crankbaits from there out. We get to the far campsite on Moosecamp and still haven’t caught anything. I had 1 strike on Bullet2. After a short stop for a snack and group photo we head back. Kraig and I get back to the first portage first and stop to fish. Kraig catches a nice walleye and his mood improves greatly. Soon after that I hook up on something big, it bends the rod in half and then the line snaps. Don’t know what it was, we got a quick glimpse, it was big. That was on 8lb fireline that it snapped. Portaging back through Bullet2 we troll across, halfway I hook up with another fish, this time a 20ish northern. Kraig got a picture, hopefully it turns out. It’s my largest fish of the trip and he put up a good fight for a northern. I release him on his way. Soon after that we notice some storm clouds rolling in so we race through Bullet1 and the portage. We wait out a brief downpour before paddling across Gun and back to basecamp. We quickly get a fire going for dinner before another band of rain moves in. We have baked walleye and rice and stuffing for dinner. After dinner we hang out and fish and watch a turtle, or more likely he was watching us. I catch another smallmouth and northern in 5’ of water on a leech. Darkness comes, another great sunset. Fish count: 9 smallmouth, 3 northern pike
