We had planned on staying another day so I could do laundry and check out the town a little more. But the laundry was closed, so we figured we'd just get a move on while the seas were calm. Lake Michigan can turn quickly, so best to travel when you can because who knows you may be socked in someplace for a few days.
We had a nice breeze and pleasant temps. We got to Portage Lake around 12:30. There were no other boats anchored here, which was nice. There were a few pontoon boats and jet ski's that buzzed by. I think they wanted to see where this big boat was from. Don't think they get a lot of visitors.
The water was not as clear as most of the other other places we've been too. We did a little fishing. Mike caught a baby bass and I caught a decent crappy. But not enough for dinner.

There were over 20 swans just swimming back and forth across this lake all day, so pretty. |
This is an Eagle catching a fish... (hard to see) |
...and flying off with it. |
