Mid September in Alaska















The fishing remains amazing especially the Rainbow Trout fishing. Good numbers of huge Bows are being caught daily and they are absolutely stuffed full of sockeye and Pink eggs. They look like giant footballs and are a ball of energy! The Silvers are still fishing very well but have peaked and are slowy starting to decline in numbers. The one pictured above was a colored up male Silver caught across from the lodge during a break. These Silvers have traveled about 150 miles by the time they reach the lodge whereas the Silver we fly out to fish are still covered in sealice and much bigger. The rest of the photos are all giant rainbows except for the one Arctic Char that was caught in our local river.
