my in laws stopped in clearwater on the way home from bemidji and overheard a guy and his 13 year old kid who were on there way to the gulf of mexico in a kayak. i guess the guy did it when he was like 19 and now his kid is doing it with him. talk about a trip. what a way to bond with your son.
I have always wanted to take boat, fishing gear and my shotgun and camp for a month and “live off the land” but since the DNR frowns on “hunting” out of season and no guns allowed in Voyagers park…I guess I will never be able to do it.
Isn’t it going to be tough going to go up the St Croix against the current. I have a healthy respect for river currents cos when I want to anchor and fish for crappies, I usually have to fight the current to get the boat just right. Imagine a canoe. But I think the Minnesota and the Mississippi part should be good.
