      Kayak camping they say
      For it’s not too far away.
      We’ll kayak then camp and catch lots of fish, then eat hamburger helper, trust me it’s delish.
      No bites on the crawbug baits
      for awhile, don’t worry mate
      a wee plopper will bring a smile.
      All comfy and cozy, the last few mosquitos in the air, a Plano lure box as a pillow you dare?
      We hope you slept well Matt with that thing under your neck, I know if it was mine I’d be a dog gone wreck.
      Dream away of huge smallies jumping in the yak, let all the posers run lips and talk smack. By the end of the trip you’ll have footage galore and all the subs will be happy but craving for more.

    My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!

    I love hamburger helper. It is one of my favorite meals ever. However, after a day of fishing there is absolutely NOTHING better than fresh out of the water fried fish with potatoes and maybe come corn or green beans or something like that. I can't imagine not having that on a camp out like you are on. I believe you are in the most beautiful country in the whole United States.

A high bar and I learn something new every time I watch. Makes you appreciate how great RUclips can be.

    Matt,
    That was a slice a Heaven. Beautiful. There is something about those shallow rock strewn lakes that spell fish to me. I crave that type of environment. If I am with others and they are catching fish in deep water, I am in the rocks and boulders. Waiting anxiously for the next video from this trip.

I've done a couple canoe trips into the BWCA and never considered taking my kayak. May have to give that a try next time, especially if I can find portages like that one - holy moly that looks convenient!
