Friday, June 07, 2013 More fishing and revelry. We portaged into Insula where I caught my first northern. We left our camp set up on the Island. Nobody wanted to pack up all those tents, chairs and other stuff just to set it up somewhere else again. Too much hassle, especially for a large group. I had to use the bathroom so we stopped on a small island on Insula so I could relieve myself. There was a mama loon on the island sitting on her nest. She made this loud noise that almost gave me a heart attack. Snapped a couple photos and left. We didnt go very far in Insula before we decided to head back to camp, hunger was setting in. We had a bountiful fish fry. We had caught enough fish to feed 9 grown men until we were full. Oil and shore lunch is all we used... delicious! As we were getting ready to head out for more fishing, someone said " Look at the Eagle!" We all looked and saw the Nation's bird gliding across the top of the water. Then, almost as if he was putting on a show for us, perfectly in front of our campsite view, he snagged a nice size northern right out of the water and flew away with it. Nature at its finest. I couldn't believe it, it was AWESOME. All I could say was, "That eagle has caught just as many fish as I have!"
