Day 3 of 5
Wednesday, July 08, 2020 After a decent night's sleep today was a repeat of the previous day with us fishing the gun barrel. Success was limited, but we were running out of live leeches and worms with hurt our fishing.  Weather great after a early morning storm, and it seemed like the heat wave and humidity was better. Talked the boys into packing up Thursday morning and moving closer to our put out and Mudro on Friday. Thought it was a good idea to cut out trip in half the last day, plus I really wanted to try a better campsite. The rookies were pleased with our campsite, but they had nothing to compare to. I knew there were much better. So despite some fear about sites being full we camped and made our way to Fourtown where we hoped to find a site between the Boot portage and the south end of Fourtown.
