Tim,

Old habits go down hard.

I'm a real "fan" of complex carbs. It's a bit cool here in mid October and the water gets down to 36 degres. I don't like sugar when I'm in the Bush so I like to layer complex carbs on top of something with a load of fat. Fuel lasts longer that way (IMHO)

My soup is home made ... not too much salt 'n that helps keep the electrolytes in balance.

Without a good fuel source, I just can't function right.

In all honesty, the menu sort of evolved on its own. I used to have a one burner stove (still do own the Peak 1), so make a meal for 3-4 (me and a few clients) that would be good and STAY hot was a challenge.

I don't float much, so the order of the day s often Breakfast, (at 04h00 for Salmon season), BIG breakfast. When it's cold out, it's esential. When it will be too hot, it's the only time to really eat something.

Long morning of fishing, ... Lesurely lunch, clients often take a nap. Mid afternoon we head back out and fish 'til dark.

Supper is a real wind down affair. Relax over soup and chow down usually 30 minutes after that.

I can usually hear snoring even before the dish water is heated up
