Just got back from a week long fly-in fishing trip in northern Saskatchewan. What a great time! One young fella there landed a 42lb lake trout. He had trouble lifting it. What a monster! Everett and I caught some "medium" pike (36"-13lbs) and a 38" trout of our own. Every outing everyday fish were on the line in numbers. I guess it kind of spoils a guy fishing here as most lakes here are overfished and have nothing like those fish left in them any longer. It was a great break. (PM me if you want more lodge details 😉)

I got a little bit done today on the C10:

E brake cable clips and rods blasted and painted.
Battery tray rust repaired and ground smooth.
RH fender delamination welded up.
Prior rust repair on RH fender penetration rewelded and hammer/dollied.
Collapsible steering shaft disassembled, blasted and painted. Awaiting to reassemble.

It was a good day wrenching.
