Day 3 - July 3, 2016

It rained most of the night and we decided to get up early and pack up camp.  We wanted to make sure we were able to get out and back to Route 389 before the rain eroded the road anymore.  We were able to make it back to Route 389 and headed north to Labrador City.  Along the way in Quebec we stopped at a few lakes and ponds to try our luck at fishing.

We stopped at half a dozen places like this to try our luck on the way to Labrador City but only produced a few strikes.  We crossed the border into Labrador at 9:30 a.m. and went to a local convenience store (Chubba's) to buy our Newfounland & Labrador fishing licenses.

After we bought our licenses, we went straight to The Narrows to fish.  On my third cast, I had a huge strike on a five of diamonds spoon.  I had a light action Ugly Stick rod and Orra Abu Garcia reel with 20 pound test braided line.  With my dad's help, we were able to land this beautiful northern pike.  It measured 8.44 pound and 35 inches.
