This was another overcast November day with the tempeture hovering around 10 C, but not a breath of wind. I started out from the Marina at 11:00 pulled out some lunch from home and motored up the lake. A good day for motoring and some quiet time on the boat. There is a beach about 5 miles up on the west side I have dubbed Scout Camp Bay. The boy scouts have a cabin in the bay they use.

 I always have the fly rod on the boat and anchored and tried a few casts in off the creek that runs into the bay. The only sign of  fish were some salmon spawning on the beach in front of the creek. The salmon are in pretty bad shape after the trip up the Fraser and Harrison River. It is surprising that salmon do continue up the 40 miles of Harrison Lake to the Lillooet River to Spawn.
I also have been reading that there are crayfish in lakes and rivers in BC and they can be caught in prawn traps, so I also gave that a try, but with no luck.

 I decided to try picking up some wind to sail back to the Marina, but it was a lost cause. There was not enought wind to fill the sails and the 1 knot I was making according to the GPS was not cutting it, so it was back to motoring. The sun was dropping behind the snow covered mountains and the tempeture was dropping. A full cockpit enclosure would be nice if I plan to continue to use the boat over the winter. For now I guess picking some days when the sun is showing itself will have to do.
It  was a great day, finished off with a glass of wine tied up at the Marina!!!!
