	I was thinking I could catch Luna a hammer handle a day and never have to pack in dog food.

When the NP is cooked the skin/scales peel back. I take a plate, put in body cavity and use a fork to pull the meat right off the bones. As long as you checked it good for bones there is no reason Luna couldn't have some high quality fish protein.

	Today's POD = a cold morning after "the big blow" in Opasquia. In this pic, DentonDoc & MagicPaddler are shown during breakfast the next morning. They had a long night, helping me pull my shelter out of the treetops just after midnight, a few hours earlier. Wind direction & velocity changed in a big way, sending my lean-to style shelter aloft. It blew up just like a balloon! Jimbo

	Magic looks like he's going deer hunting.

	What is the blue back ground? It looks like water but there are no waves and the wind never stopped while we were up there. TomT The jacket goes with my orange hat

	Going to try the roasted fish thing. It might keep my brother from eating them raw. Thanks for the tip!

Back before I was a solo tripper, I was in a group of 6 that made our first trip to the BWCA. We camped one night where a feeder stream was emptying into the lake. I started catching 2-3 lb SMB every other cast. The guys built a fire and started cleaning fish. I was so into catching them, the other guys started frying them up and eating them before I came back to camp. I ended up cooking my own dinner. Fast forward to the next day and one by one as my buddies came back after using the bathroom they said they had WORMS in their stool! Turns out the guy who was frying the fish hadn't cooked them properly. I was the ONLY one who didn't have this issue. I've NEVER forgotten that. I cook my fish thoroughly the same as you would poultry. If you brother ever gets worms, he will too.

	Today’s picture is from the THIRD different campsite on EAST Lake (OPP), but not the last. We ultimately camped at the west edge of East Lake. We returned to the pictured campsite via a different route, utilizing a short portage hinted to in an old map. It was the only site we used more than once during our trip.
