Rest day. We did not fish much, but did catch one smallie from the shore of our site. We paddled around and checked out the lake, seeing a couple cormorants, as well as two other canoes who were fishing. The weather was perfect, down in the high 30’s at night, and sunny in the low 60’s during the day. A fearless loon came and visited our shore that evening. It rained during the night, nothing terrible, but enough to bring the rest of the mosquitoes out.
