Thursday, August 01, 2013 Blueberry pancakes for breakfast -- I was happy to have some vegetation in my diet again! 
At this point in the trip -- my dad still couldn't tell you what a Senko was but he was catching a lot of fish with them. Rowan liked his tubes and I convinced my brother Mike that catching a top water fish is worth pulling three in on a rapala -- life was good. Had a few bites on a white Zulu of QueticoMike fame, still found it difficult to set the hook but it was good to see it in action.

We tripped into Larch -- seemed nice enough, the island campsite looked great. Half heartedly tried for some crappie, didn't get a single bite. 

Spaghetti for supper was the call of the day -- accompanied with the 'pizza dough' bannock with sprinkles of garlic and parmesan, delicious!
