Silver season

Fishing not blogging.

Perhaps a little bragging:



A silver salmon on the fly is probably right at the maximum level of fun.

Wow, you got that right. I spent a week in Alaska at a (undisclosed location) great place and did nothing but strip lines and get ripped by hot Silvers on dry flies. The constant drizzle, rain never let up. I had the line cracks and athletic tape on my fingers to prove it. What a thrill. Thanks for the reminder. Enjoy!

I'd say that was worth a little brag...

Nice. One of these days I'll make it to Alaska. Just hope it's not when I'm 80 and I'm on a geriatric's cruise...

Terry,

A week of topwater action would be fantastic! We can get them chasing pollywogs every now and then, but not consistently.

Chad,

I've only been to one area, but it looks like a postcard and has bear, moose, glaciers, big fish, astounding mountains and all the other things you'd expect. Definitely worth getting to as soon as circumstances permit.
