Didn’t look this morning like I was going to be able to head out, but it cleared up pretty nicely. Moderately windy, the most I’ve seen so far, and plenty of little waves, so my paddling rhythm was a little uneven today. I wonder if days like this it would help to have one of those foot-controlled rudders.

Another fish story, a fourteen to sixteen inch fish (Walleye?) was puttering about on the surface near the North end of the lake, his fin sticking up a few inches out of the water. I could tell how big it was because I paddled right up beside it and it didn’t seem to care. Then I paddled past it, turned around, and quietly floated up beside it again, and just as I was coming past it dove. Maybe it didn’t care that I was just passing through, but was worried when I came for another pass. (It was thiiiiiis big!)
