Tuesaday June 16th It's a pancake and bacon morning. I spot a wake on the lake and the zoom on the camera shows a moose cow and calf out for a big swim. We head down to the rapids to South Cone and find a pool below to throw leeches into and catch about 30 nice smallmouth. Seven are kept for supper. The action is hot and we all have fun. We poke around and find another nice fish here and there and then head back for a brief dip and a great fish fry supper and then retreat to the bug tent and a nice fire.
