Glad to hear that you would take Slippery Jack to dinner, lol. It sounds like you know a lot of wild food already!

Your Canada trips sound like a great time! Canada has so much great wilderness, canoeing, and fishing! When I lived in Michigan, I made a lot of trips to Canada for canoeing, too, mostly in Ontario. It's easy to live on the fish in a lot of water there. What areas did you go to? I think @countryinspired has spent time in the Boundary Waters Area. Watch your step on those portages!
