Did you pick up any trout?

Never canoed it, but did backpack the isle 4x times, covering the 3 main routes east to west and the center route 2x.

Caught a few small lake trout casting from shore at the campsites directly on Superior.

Don't know if you like to catch Brook Trout, but there are numerous streams that dump into Superior and I'm told that they hold Brook Trout and some hold " Coasters" which if you don't know are Brook trout that feed/grow in Superior and get to humongous size, compared to the stream Brookies. They have special rules for Coasters, but I believe you can keep (1) over a certain size?

I didn't know about the Brook trout/Coasters until way after I made those 4 trips.
If I ever go back, I'll make a point to fish for them.

MT, is right about Superior waters. Even in calm conditions you want to stay clsoe to shore, pay attention and have a plan B if you or someone else go over. You wouldn't last long or swim far in that frigid water.
