Thunder Bay
We have enjoyed the past two days here in Thunder Bay. Yesterday afternoon Tippy, Alex, and I drove around town a bit and then stopped at a local Safeway market to load up on a few essentials. Tippy fixed a great dinner and we retired early as I had to be up to meet Bernie at 6:00 AM.
Today, Thursday, Bernie and I drove about 60 miles east on highway 11 to the Nipigon River. This is a big river and is very clean and clear. You could easily see the bottom in 10+ feet of water. We had a poor weather day and a poor catching day but still enjoyed the fishing and the company. I will meet Bernie at 7:00 PM tomorrow to fish the mouth of a river where it dumps into Lake Superior. Bernie saw some folks catch some 7-8 lb Walleye there several days ago so we are going to give it a try for an hour or two.
Tippy and I plan to go out for lunch tomorrow and then make a trip to Fort William on the west side of Thunder Bay. This is a working replica of the original fort and is said to be well worth the visit. I will tell you our thoughts tomorrow and include some pictures as well. Until then be safe.
