Day 5 of 6
Friday, September 18, 2020 Today was my "rest" day. I planned on generally taking it easy. Gathering enough wood for a nice "last night" campfire. BTW, lots of firewood options on this site with easy access. I harvested most of it from the north end of the island. Very good quality. I decided to take the canoe out and give fishing an honest try. I trolled with spinners and crank baits. Tried jigging with plastics. After a couple hours without a bite I decided to hang it up and just enjoy being out in the wilderness. Pretty cool to have an eagle flying over you while fishing! That night I enjoyed a nice fire and a little bourbon. My nightly ritual. I was able to message with my family with the Garmin InReach. This was a valuable tool and glad that I had purchased it. ~Burnt Lake
