On layover days and when the kids are with, we almost always have a fire both morning and evening which is then used for cooking.  Personally there are few things more enjoyable to me than the dawn experience, having a pot of cowboy coffee, and working the immediate shoreline for whatever is swimming by.

On the more serious fishing and distance trips, the stove is used on almost every meal, excluding the fishfry.  Campfires might be made later on before dark.
