A view upstream towards the rising sun as we just launched the boat. A chilly but beautiful morning! |
Now a view downstream from the launch. The mists were clearing ahead of us and we looked forward to a fun time. | |
A view past my fishing pole as we near one of the good holes. Bryan did all the rowing. I felt bad about that, but it did give me the opportunity to fish a lot! |
Looking at a rockwall we fished just above. The water was chilly that morning, but didn't bother us in our neoprene waders. However, it seemed like the fish were in a coma because of it! | |
 Here's Bryan toiling away at the oars. One thing I did notice is that he could make that boat do things I would have needed an outboard for! The quiet and manueverability were uncanny! |
 Another, better view of the rockwall. | |
Finally, FISH-ON! Bryan hooks up with a nice Rainbow Trout. The Upper Kenai is catch and release only for these beauties. |
Getting tired now, this 'bow put up a good ruckus. | |
Released to be fished again another day. Bryan ended up catching two 'bows and a Dolly Varden to my zip. I had seen several nice Rainbows in the clear water, but couldn't entice them to smack any fly in my flybox. Heck, I passed a fly so close to one nice 'bow so many times he finally spooked when one of my flies finally bounced off of his nose! All in all, an absolutely FANTASTIC day of fishing! |
