Day 6 of 6
Sunday, July 11, 2021 Our exit day came upon us way too soon! I set out for an early morning fishing adventure and FINALLY caught the first walleye of the trip(last day, of course). It was a healthy 15 incher and made for a delicious breakfast. As we made our way across Wood Lake to the EP we took in the views and prepared ourselves for the portage out. Hot, sweaty, dirty and riddled with bug bites we reached the trucks with a glow of satisfaction. As we secured our canoes and put our packs away, a couple was just starting out down the portage. I felt bad not telling them that this EP isn't really suitable for a 50 quart coleman cooler on wheels... I wonder if they even made it out on the water that day. I try to refrain from giving unsolicited advice, so I let it be.
Some things you have to learn the hard way.... like bringing enough fishing gear for a family of 6!
