Fly Fisherman Dreams

My Brother in Law is a fly fishing guide up in Ketchikan Alaska.

His partner owns a Float plane to fly into remote lakes.............then landing nice fish!


his first gopro video. captures the adventure pretty well.

I've done this with him........fantastic.



Fly Fishing Drool.


grins, note the nice hard airplane bank BETWEEN the trees to get onto final approach and set it down.

I lived in Ketchikan for years. Great outdoor adventures which include flying into remote lakes for fishing or hunting. Awesome stuff!

Yes, catch and release allows you to land the lunker both today AND tomorrow.



These are honest slabs o' fighting fish on a thick 6 wt flyrod, he was tying into 10-12 pounders but they'd break off............wah for him.
