The days are getting shorter and the hot hot days are gone. When the weather changes you do take advantage of a nice day so we got the Band back together and got in a little kayaking on the river again. Mitch kind of Macgyver'd his kayak to make it a little more comfortable for his physique - it seemed to work.
My fishing rod of choice today was an ice fishing rod with a small regular reel and I used a hook and a worm and splitshot. Last time I do because the split shot kept falling down the last eye and I had to adjust it a lot of the time. The river was low and I misjudged how long it would take me to paddle over to the far shore to go down a set of small rapids. I bottomed out and I had to stand up and step into the water a couple of times. Too far to "jerk off" the rocks (kayak talk - nothing dirty). There was a good stretch that had big rock faces so Joanne tucked in there to fish a hole. It was kind of windy so hard to remain in one place without too much effort.
We have a Go-Pro now so I will read up on how to get a video on this Blog to let you see the action photos. Rejean wore it on his hat for the river run. Fun to watch.
