Day 2 of 7
Sunday, August 10, 2008 Up early. Jimmy catches a walleye using top bait in the little waterway between our island and the mainland. This trip is turning into something special. Weather was perfect for sleeping last night. Everyone is in great spirits. We decide to stay here and fish Sunday Lake. I guess this will be more fishing trip than canoe trip. Jimmy put his photography class to good use. He took the great photo of the morning mist rising off the lake. More fish for breakfast, then we fished over the whole lake. Afternoon we went to the diving rock at the end of the island and all had a great time swimming, diving and just playing in the water. No fish for dinner, but no one is complaining. Another perfect sleeping night.
