I have been out fishing the last couple of days, and there is few fish to be had. I did get into 4 fish today, but they all left in huff. I can't seem to bank any of these beauties yet this year. I will be on the creek almost everyday from here on out, and I hope to have some pics for all of you real soon.   Good luck out there. Flymstr;

    I have been to the creek now twice since the last posting, and the fishing is getting better, ( for the fish). I have been into 6 fish now, and as you will see, there is absolutely no pictures. I have had my hands on two of them, but they squirmed away, no thanks to Indy. She released two on her own, by jumping to soon. It has been awhile since she has been able to get ahold of a good fish, so she is has a bit of buck fever. She will calm down as the season progresses. Hope to have some pics for you tomorrow. It has begun to snow here, so the conditions will dictate this week, wether I will be able to get down to the creek. Hope it's not to bad. The snow will not stop me, but the ice will put the breaks on the driving.         Good luck out there.   Flymstr;

Well it took me awhile to get off the couch and really go out fishing. Today I went down to the Oregon coast to seek out some bright Coho, and Chinook Salmon. I found a bunch of them. We fished the Trask river, just this side of Tillamook, and the fishing was great for the fly rod. I went with my buddy Steve, and again I had to show him how it was done. Steve spotted the first fish of the day, on a quick stop along the side of the road to pee, he looked down and saw two nice Chinook. We got our gear together and went in for the slaughter. It took abit of time to get things in order and to start getting into the rhythm needed to successfully fish. After about 15 minutes worth of warm up time, we started hooking up. I got into four fish in the first hour, and Steve hit into two. That was the last I heard from Steve almost the rest of the day, but I had just begun. We headed up river, and found another location, where we could see fish. We got the gear out again, and now it was really time to start hooking up. In the next five hours, I hooked approximately 20 fish or more, landed about 11, and Steve touched one, and got another one to the bank.  Tough day on the Steve man!!!. It was a great day, and the best was the 35 pound Chinook on the 8 weight fly rod and 10 pound test. Here are the pics from today. Steve is holding the one that he was able to bring to the beach, the rest are the ones I talked into giving up. We did not retain any of these fish, for they were all natives.     Good luck out there!!     Flymstr;

Well as many of you know, the limits and river access on the Situk have been cut back, due to a lack of Sockeye over the weir. The kings are thick in the river now, but still no sign of them opening the river for kings. Today though I flew out from Yakutat Lodge to the Akwe river. The kings are arriving there in good numbers, and the Sockeye's and the Dolly Varden are thick. Matt and I guided six gentlemen to the Akwe today, and the fishing and the catching were non stop. Although only two large kings were landed, there were others hooked and lost. There were five Sockeye's caught, without even fishing for them. The guys were also able to land around 100 Dolly Varden. Here is a pic of the 30 pounder, and a pic of the rest.   Not a bad 5 hours.   Flymstr;

Sorry about the delay, I am still having problems with the computer. I think I need a new one, or maybe just someone who knows about this stuff i am having problems with. I want all the readers to know that I am not stopping this site, just having some problems with lap top.        The sockeye are here and are in the river in good numbers now. I have been on the river with clients from Yakutat Lodge almost everyday and the fishing has been great. Hope to see some of you real soon.    Flymstr;
