Zander fishing

I had a weekend away recently fishing for Zander (aka Walleye).

Friday evening was cool and windy. We stopped at a beach along the lake shore for some food.

We caught 2 on Friday evening,

which we smoked and had for breakfast on Saturday morning.

It was still very windy on Saturday morning.

But calmed down later on during the day. We caught three more on Saturday evening.

Here at the cabin I have had several nights with temperatures below freezing.

I have built an insulated box to house my batteries so that they do not freeze. I will not be living here during the winter but will be visiting.

I am currently busy cutting and splitting wood for next year. I am planning to live at the cabin until the end of this month and will then move back to the house before the first snow arrives.
