Sunday, May 28, 2023    Caught and ate my first lake trout this AM! Wind was mercifully slack so took a chance and headed around to the deep side. First cast! Purple tail dancer.    A young couple and their dog visited briefly while passing my site. I asked how he cooked lakers and he responded, "whole or filleted". My catch was on the small, but legal, side and I opted for whole. Lots of little trout bones. Fillet next time. Fry-Bake did well though my oil was a little too hot.    Wind is picking up again, so probably spend the remainder of today readying for leaving tomorrow and napping. Today is Sunday. I asked and the Lord provided.    Too hot in the hammock and too many bugs to remove the net. Thinking I'll set this chair, hydrate and pontificate... and kill flys.    Two of those giant swans landed across from me. The staccato chop-chop-chop as they take off is impressive, as is their long, gentle glide to a halt.    I caught a smallie from shore. Not much larger than my hand so he didn't get eaten.
