Fine report. Some things about the Yoop Jeff is too much of a
gentleman to report on:
Pasties should never be eaten in a closed vehicle
The Fisher Shack is the Taj-Mafreakin-Hal of fish camps
One can violate all 10 commandments of ATV operation in one trip (can
cause serious injury or death)
A piece of water should not have the appellation "river" if you can dam
it with your foot
A bar and restaurant called UP Chucks should not be allowed to serve
food
Don't play quick draw with a broken bear spray canister (and no, it
wasn't me)
Yoopers can recognize Southerners at a distance and will shoot at them
The most beautiful fall foliage in the world is on the UP
Weddings should not be allowed in you chosen fishing hole
Ralph the fishing dog loves the water
Jeff missed the worst landing that I've ever had that did not bring out
the fire trucks, so he doesn't have to worry, the Karma is still good
Wolfy is a gracious host and worked as hard as any Clavemeister I've
ever seen to put folks on fish
Wild blueberries are great, Jackie's cakes are better
Wolfy can make a campfire hot enough to melt titanium


Thanks to Wolfy, John, Jeff, Wayne, George, Jackie and Ralph the dog
for making it a wonderful trip
