    I’m sitting at the airport in Chicago after flying a redeye flight from Anchorage. Alaska is an amazing place. I will post more later after I get some sleep. Jonathon, yes we saw brown bears! We actually had a young male about 10 feet from our boat fishing salmon. I represented some Walton’s gear too while I was on the Kenai Fjords tour. I snapped a selfie at a glacier.20220615_141253.jpg

    ND Mike Can’t wait to hear the updates and highlights! Leaving on 7/1 for my trip and it has been a couple of years since I made the trip there. My uncle sent this pic of a young bull that has been bedding in his yard at his cabin.C753648C-128C-4C57-B3CC-76B3117F50E4.jpeg

      ND Mike I bet that was one heck of a trip. I’ve always wanted to go. Glad you had a good time.

        ND Mike I thought the Kenai was some huge river when I was taken there. But, low and behold it was not that wide and only about 8-10 foot deep. There was a number of animals feasting at that river. The guide and guy I knew had some fun with the newbie as they took the boat with my back to the shore and nestled up to a moose and her young. She tapped me on my shoulder and I reacted as one would think. Yep, they had their fun scaring the heck out of me. Oh, the memories. Glad you had a good time.

          ND Mike Glad you had a memorable trip, but everyone I have talked to who has gone to Alaska has said it is something they will never forget. Need up date on the fishing.

                                          So where to start? The first day was a super long day of travel. We flew from Fargo, ND to Chicago, Chicago to Seattle, Seattle to Anchorage. Spent about 10 hours on planes, I can’t remember how many layover hours, then a 3 hour drive from Anchorage to Kenai. We were pretty tired when we got there. The next day was a recover day hanging out at the cabins and visiting with the Alaskan guys I played football with. 20220611_215059.jpg
                                          The first adventure we did was fish for Halibut. We went out of Ninilchik. The seas were pretty rough we were in 6 foot rollers. On our boat 2 people got sick and on the other boat 4 people were sick. Both boats limited out but the Halibut were all small. imagejpeg_0(3).jpg 20220613_133924.jpg
                                          All in all a fun trip but also my least favorite thing we did. Part 2 will come tomorrow.
