Sunday, August 14, 2016 Peter was up early to fish, they were still uncooperative. Then we had pancakes and discussed our options. Since the campsite was so nice, we decided to daytrip. Heading east through Ima and giving Alworth a shot at Walleyes. The 18 rod portage from Ima to Alworth had a nice campsite off to the side, but many trees were leaning from the Winds that came through in June. We encountered the worst blow down area’s at the end going from Parent to Snowbank on our trip out. We fished Alworth hard all afternoon and had lunch/late snack on the island, which had a fire grate, but is not listed on all the maps. My Fisher map shows it and it would be a nice site to camp on, if we had caught anything larger than 3” Perch, one each. Doesn’t show on the BWCA.com website as a site though. After getting back on Jordan, I thought our luck was changing, as I hooked a good eater northern, but Peter wanted a quick meal and was relieved when it shook my hook before I could land it. He promised we’d catch walleyes on Monday and have a fish fry. Paddling across the lake, I missed a strike (probably another northern) and we made it all day without a keeper. Dinner was more dried food rehydrated. We had some instant potatoes and I forget the main course. After a quick fire and stargazing, off to bed again.
