Canada day 2

We started the day at 6:30 am. Had breakfast and got the boat ready for the day. Slightly chilly. First we went to the creek. No luck...kept fishing... Moved to a new spot... Then another. The another no fish :-( finely at 4ish we headed to double birch. Dad got snagged and as I was realing in... Bam caught a walleye!!! Then put the poles back down... Then got on another walleye. As it was swirling in the water and grandpa was ready to get it... It was gone... Both him and I saw it.. Bummer... We still needed dinner.

Then we kept fishing the hot spot... Dad got a few bites and lost many minnows.  We were about ready to head in when bam I had another fish on the line. It was a snake but we would take it. It meant supper!

Did I mention it rained most of the day??? Well it did and jackson was a good sport for most of it.  I feel very blessed to be here.  My dad made it all possible.  He took just us.  He didn't have to.  But wanted to make sure we could go.  Jackson really did amazing for the chilly weather.  I half expected him to complain all day.  But only at bed.  Missing his brother..  LOL







Came home and cooked up the food!!! Drool....
