Day 1 of 7
Saturday, August 09, 2008 In at Moose Lake. We take a tow to Prairie Portage. Then on into Sunday Lake. We are taking it easy as we are introducing our teenage sons, Jimmy and Jack, to wilderness camping and canoeing. Just as we paddled into Quetico, we saw a beautiful bald eagle soaring overhead. A good omen, we think. Found a little island camp site about half way up the lake. What a great site it turned out to be. We immediately caught two fat bass and had a wonderful dinner. My son, Jimmy, was surprised that fresh fish tasted so different from the frozen stuff we usually get down by Chicago.
