Alaska fishing season

20121030-153841.jpg The Alaska fishing season is over for us here at Drifting on the Fly now.  The cool 5 am mornings are now replaced with well below freezing temps, wind and snow now for months ahead. My 2012 season is over here in Alaska and I look forward to next years Alaska fishing season already. I While getting my gear in order for the long winter ahead I was able to slip out and enjoy the kenai river for a couple afternoons. The fishing was incredible and I hated to leave it. Here are a couple pictures from my last day on the Kenai river fly fishing for rainbow trout and steelhead my last few days of the 2012 season. 20121102-151837.jpg I caught this steelhead on the Anchor river using a six weight z axis switch rod 20121102-151854.jpg 20121102-151910.jpg 20121102-151919.jpg Brian of Wilderness Way looks a little chilli as we motor back up stream for another drift.  We had an epic day on the river today and I look forward to getting back out there next spring.  Who knows maybe there will be a 20 Pound fish on the end of my line next time?

WILLIE DRIFT BOAT

copy-of-hunting-063.jpgcopy-of-hunting-062.jpgcopy-of-hunting-060.jpg After a long haul we finally have the new willie drift boat stored here in Alaska .  Things are starting to come together for the 2008 Alaska fishing season.  This new drift boat will be used for many seasons on the Kenai Peninsula before we will be due for another one.  Willie drift boats are durable and a very safe boat to fish out of.  We can accommodate up to 4 anglers on this boat.  If you are interested in a Kenai river guide trip this summer you can contact me at www.driftingonthefly.com or email at scott@driftingonthefly.com.
