Day 2 of 5
Sunday, May 27, 2007 We get moving fairly early this morning and grab a couple of granola bars for the road. Both of us are glad we waited out the wind last night as we are now moving across Lake Three and Four with a Tailwind. The portages along this stretch are pretty easy and don't really pose a challenge which is probably why it is so popular. Spemd some time fishing below the rapids below Hudson Lake and pick up a few Northerns but don't keep as they are a bit small and today is a travelling day. The rapids are beautifula dn seems like a good spot to take a break for a while. We end up making camp early just before the portage to Insula on hudson lake and spend the rest of the day fishing and exploring Hudson. Beautiful evening.
