Loop trip to Sagus and Jordan Lakes
by Freeleo1
We had Egg Taquitos with sausage and cheese for breakfast. We used dehydrated ground beef and added sausage seasoning. It worked out pretty well. We spent the rest of the morning setting up the camp and getting water for the sunshower for hand washing and dishes, and filtering drinking water. The new gravity filter is fast, but only holds 3 liters at a time, so it takes several refills to get much water filtered. Kind of a pain. We made BLT's for lunch and headed out to go fishing. I caught a walleye around the end of the island, but we weren't getting much action after that and Dan kept catching rocks on the bottom, so we moved to the end of the lake near the Roe portage. I caught and released a small northern we probably should have kept, but we seemed to be getting several bites. We decided to fry up the walleye and make fish cakes with a tuna packet for dinner. We got back to camp about 5 and rehydrated green beans, filleted the fish and fried it with the fish cakes and made instant mashed potatoes. Our dinners are way too complicated sometimes. It was a warm evening, which we figured out when we tried to go to sleep. The tent was uncomfortably hot, but rain was predicted, so we kept the rain fly on.
