Once upon the time, I'd foray for a month or two or three, sometimes traveling thousands of miles, even in the winter, but Time has softened me and a single morning can tire me, HOWEVER personal circumstances have enabled me to plan a three-day mini-trip, big for me at my age, but little for me considering where I've been, thus the "Big, Little Trip" title. I'll drive to the bog the first day, paddle down a tiny river, meeting at least one beaver dam, and camp on an island. Then I'll fish that evening and fish the entire next day. The third and final day, I'll fish in the morning, paddle up that tiny river, and drive home. Here's a photo of where I'm going. It has no cabins or homes and it has a million pounds of weeds, which I'll love. It does have lmb, so I reckon I'll catch a couple. It has various bays, so there'll be structure everywhere with points, saddles, and reefs:

@ol'crickety I’m jealous…. Looks like beautiful country. You know you have to post pics. Are tent’in it or roughing it, you just sleeping on the ground? I’ve sleep under Jon boats and canoes before. Still get wet but not rained on at least. 
Stay safe and keep us updated.

I'll take a tent, sleeping pad, and sleeping bag. I'll be comfy. In aggregate, I've spent years of my life sleeping in tents. They're my home.

Haha me too. Early days of trout fishing, military, even did some stretches of the Appalachian trail. Some of my most memorable meals have MRE’s or Ramen noodles, not the best meal, but most memorable. 
Again, safe travels.

In my teenage years, I hated sleeping in my suburban bedroom so much that I slept in a tent in our backyard. Most people love walls, but not all.

Sounds like an awesome trip! The remoteness just sounds like it is soul recharging. Can't wait to read the report when you get back.
