Day 4 of 10
Monday, June 27, 2011 Rain in the morning, Rain in the afternoon. Rain in the evening. We are guessing over 3" fell on us by the amount in the bottom of one of the canoes.It was good test for our homemade tarp. Breakfast was donuts under the tarp. In between the downpours some pike walleye and smallies were being caught, including one 34" pike by myself. A few were kept for dinner. I've never had pike that tasted this good in my life. A painted turtle was put in the water laden canoe and was named Mitch. The boys said Mitch would be their pet until turtle season started then we would eat him. Next thing we know Mitch is gone and a 8" smallie is swimming in the canoe. He was a challenge to catch and a release soon followed. Since the rain lasted so long we decided to stay another night in this site.
