My Alaska trip.
-
ND Mike I can see why this is your fav experience. I was taken to a small river that had a confluence. First time ever I could actually think of walking on water(biblical) because the salmon were swimming on top of one another. I also saw 3-4 bears and they didn’t care about us. One bear just sat on a rock in the middle and snagged as many salmon as he/she could. I’m smiling with you. What an experience.
zbigjeff it is something that I will never forget!
-
ND Mike WOW! Best round of pics yet, the bears looked amazing and cool to see them fishing too. The one that has just the bears head out of water and he is looking at the camera, like “come on guy, I’m trying to fish too!” That glacier from the air is amazing looking!

Here is Coach fighting his fish.
On the way out we flew over a glacier.
This fly-in is something I will do for sure. It was an extra $550.00 that I wasn’t planning on but worth every penny!!!ND Mike What an amazing experience. I have a friend with a float plane, he lives in Alaska and one year flew it across Canada to Minnesota. He took me up flying, it is quite an experience taking off and landing on lakes.

ND Mike AND you should NOT forget it. It WAS a trip!!! Thanks for displaying it and bringing back some wonderful memories.
zbigjeff your welcome!

bocephus it is surprising how soft the landing is, well at least the 2 times I have experienced it.

Jonathon it is a bucket list trip for sure.

bocephus We lived large when I brought home about 200 lbs of halibut steaks about 1.5 inches thick and 150 lbs of salmon back in the day from my trip. The experts up there advised to soak it in milk, season it like a steak and grill it. They weren’t kidding. One of the best white steaks ever.
zbigjeff Yes, that works great for a lot of seafood. We do it regularly. If it is real strong stuff, like shark, etc. add a little bit of yeller mustard & that makes it great. Makes some salmon more greater!

calldoctoday thanks! Yeah I really like that shot of the bear in the water.

ND Mike That was my experience also, my friend told me they like a little chop on the water for takeoff as it helps break the suction from the pontoons.

calldoctoday I never thought about adding mustard to a stronger fish. Adding that thought to the old tool box.

calldoctoday thanks! Yeah I really like that shot of the bear in the water.
ND Mike What an adventure! Those red salmon are fun to catch and very good eating. The bear watching and view during the your lunch is spectacular!

ND Mike glad to hear that you had a great time and made some awesome memories. I have family and friends up there and have spent time in AK. There is lots to see and do especially after the spring melt.

YooperDog I just need to talk my wife into going up there instead of a Beach in Mexico or Jamaica…that is going to be a hard sell!
