Sorry, no pictures on this post. This is because the people I fished were not guests of ours at Beaver Creek Cabins. Tuesday morning and Wednesday morning I was selected to fish in the 2008 Kenai Classic fishing tournament. This was my seventh year of fishing the tournament and I feel honored that out of 465 guides only 55 were invited to participate. Each client pays $6000 to fish two 1/2 days on the Kenai. Money raised from this tournament is used for habitat restoration on the Kenai--something very important to all involved. The last two years over one million dollars were raised and it looks as if this year will be the same.
So, about the fishing. My boat managed to be right in the thick of things. The first day we landed two kings with the largest measuring 46.5 inches. The second day we managed to land three kings that were all around 25lbs. Great tournament, great event, and the weather couldn't have been better. A great way to start this week.

Congratulations Keith on your selection and having a successful tournament. You deserved it. Being in the top ten percent is an honor...but my group believes you're in the top 1 percent on the Kenai! Have a great July.
