Day 4 of 7
Friday, June 08, 2012 (Ryan) We woke up to a bright sun coming through the tent so we decided to get up. Then we had some oatmeal for breakfast. After that we decided to get ready to go to Trygg Lake. Once we were ready we headed for the portage. It was a steep portage but well worth it. Once we got up there we casted out our spinners but had no luck. Then we decided to check out the campsite on Trygg, and threw some more casts from shore, once again no luck. So we got back in the canoe and continued down the lake. And then I got a snag so we paddled back to get it out, but NO it wasn’t a snag it was a FISH. So I set to the hook and started to reel in the fish, it was a great fight. Then finally it came to the surface and Sam netted it. It was a big brooke trout, probably about 18 inches.After a few pictures it was released. We tried a few more casts and went back down to Takucmich. Back at camp we put on our bobbers and leeches. We then went to a bay and casted our leeches, once again it didn’t take too long to get some food. Then we went back to camp and cooked them up, after supper we had some dehydrated dessert, Hot Apple Cobbler. It was delicious. That evening we had a fire and went to sleep.
