Long Island day trip. Hit Rib, Lower George, Karl, and checked out Long Island two different places. Did the portage from Karl to Long Island just to get a look see....Paddled thru Karl and found a lunch spot on the north end of Long Island Lake. Such a beautiful lake, but a strong west wind would make for quite the challenge if you were heading West. Found a fishing hot spot along the way. Caught 5 big northerns in 5 minutes. Saw the Trumpeter swan pairs again....

After lunch snack, started our journey back to camp.
