    Ahh the nostalgia. Made a trip in 2016 to salmon fish and I miss it to this day. Stayed right on the Kenai in some small cabins

    Awesome, Congratulations on you all limiting out. Looked like a really great time. Did the charter clean and vacuum pack all your fish ? Keep on keeping on. Stay Safe !

      Hey, John! It was an awesome time! They did all the cleaning and vacuum sealing-quite the treat! We just smoked some of this batch last weekend, it turned out sooo good 😋

    Was there last year, didn’t do nearly as good. Going back in July , this could be a yearly trip. Did you have just mono line on or did you have fly line

    • @wanderblest
      @wanderblest  Рік тому

      Hi, Steve! Thanks for watching and commenting. To be honest, since we were using the guide’s stuff I don’t remember, it may very well have just been mono. Best of luck in July!!

      @Steve-rr3gc Рік тому +2

      thank you for the reply. Last year we loaded fly reels with straight mono(fluorocarbon). This year I didn’t know if I was going to take off backing and fly line, kinda of a hassle

    • @wanderblest

      Update-we went again this year with our own gear. We used backing and mono. How did your trip go?

      @@wanderblest so this year I left the fly line on and just add extra long leader of fluorocarbon line. I’m glad I did it that way cause the week we were there the salmon weren’t running. 80,000 below last year total and daily numbers as low as 2,800. By midweek I shortened the leader and started to fish for rainbows,grayling and pinks. Did well , no sockeye(can’t catch what’s not there) but caught other fish.
