A very busy week of catching on the Kenai. There are huge numbers of pink salmon in the river which has made it a challenge to find silvers. If we put our time in and sort through 20-30 pinks per angler, we've been able to put a few silvers in the box. Here's Randy with the largest silver caught to date in my boat. I'd estimate its weight to be between 11-12 pounds.
Here's the results of the another day of guiding Jacob, Randy, Adam, and Scott. These guys sure ended my week on a positive note. I hope to see them all again in two years.
Tuesday afternoon I had an opportunity to fish in Senator Lisa Murkowski's Junior Classic tournament. The participants this year were the children of the enlisted men and women from Joint Base Elmendorf and Richardson (JBER). It's a great event and it's quite an honor to introduce fishing to the children of the parents that are serving our country so well. You'll have to admit, their smiles say it all. Thank you Senator Murkowski for sponsoring this yearly event.
Sunday was the beginning of week two of the Blinn crew. It wasn't easy getting these silvers but it was a heck of a lot of fun getting there. It's been four years since Clint, Kyle, and Brian, were in Alaska. This time they decided to bring Jerod along. He's the guy in the center with the biggest smile. I'm looking forward to the week ahead because these guys are in my boat a couple of more times.

Had to end this post with a photo of Gary with what he affectionately calls a "Wilbur".
Until next week, tight lines!
