This past night the Fishing Derby wrapped up in Arctic Bay with the awards night at the gym. First prize at each of the five locations was one thousand dollars, and although she was quite successful in her fishing, Leah didn't catch any award winning fish. Travis didn't catch any fish, but being outside for the entire weekend he was in his glory.
More photos below the fold.
The trip out to Kugurauk takes about 9 or 10 hours (about 250 kms as the Raven flies) including breaks for tea…
Travis and his aunt, don’t look very happy but it’s already been a long day…
As soon as they arrived they began to drill holes. The ice up here is eight feet thick…
And it doesn’t take long before someone drops a line…
And then the photos stop until the trip home. I believe all of these are from the first tea break on the way back, in glorious weather…

That looks like everyone was having too much fun on a nice sunny day. Nice pix’s.
Yeah, being stuck at home I was thinking they were all having too much fun Dave. Sometimes it feels like the kid at home doing his violin lessons while everyone else is playing shinny outside. And they are nice pictures… Leah took them. Just not very many, there were fish to catch.
