Day 6 of 8
Wednesday, June 17, 2020 Got up early on Agamok and pushed across Gabi before 7 AM. I wanted to see Powell and West Fern again, and didn't want to end the day with the Tusc portage. I decided to paddle back out to Round Lake, and then portage back in to Missing Link. I fished a little on the way out, and had a lake trout follow an orange Rapala all the way up to the surface on Powell. My fish finder battery died, so I started to pick up the pace to make it to Missing link. Passed many groups on my way out. My plan was to spend the last day and a half fishing Missing Link and Mavis for brook trout. I only saw one other group on Missing Link, a father and daughter. After setting up camp, I began looking for the marked portage to Mavis. No matter how hard I looked, I couldn't find a single sign of it. After the long day, I didn't feel like bushwacking, so I cast a few times in Mavis, then made supper and went to bed. Daily Totals: 12 miles, 16 portages, no fish
