I've been fishing in Canada more times than I can count. I lost track somewhere along the way. Each year is planned around the Canadian fishing trip. I've taken all of my closest friends several times. If you want to get to know someone, fly into an outpost camp and spend a week with them. You'll learn alot about the people you thought you knew. We were never the same when we returned and over the years the experience has always bound us together.

Mostly it was about taking BJ and Kate. For BJ it's a sleeping trip with some fishing thrown in, more like a time to drink beer and tell stupid stories.

Kate is the fisherwoman. She always catches the biggest fish and and breaks fishing rods. The fish always stay there (except for Norman who was so old that he died from the exersion of hauling him in - the toothless wonder is hanging on Jewel's wall). I can get fish easy enough from the local market so there's no point in putting them in a box and dragging them home.
