Well, it’s mid July, and I finally landed my first limit of 3 salmon…and I netted my own this time to see if I still had the juice, and I do. One before dinner on the 5th cast, and 2 more just before bed, with no injuries other than what the bonker did to the salmon. No worries, they’re in the brine and headed to the smoker now and despite the torrential downpour today I’d call it a success. 35 years of fishing with the same pole has it’s perks.

About the Author: The Alaska Dream
Our family of six has been living the Alaska Dream on the world famous Kenai River for the past 15+ years, enjoying the bounty of the land & sea in everything we do! All of our children were born in Alaska, and both of us have lived here for 30+ years. We love sharing the Alaska Dream with visitors from around the corner and around the world and we especially love to help families and children catch their 1st salmon, halibut or rainbow trout and learn how to care for it all the way through the process of cooking it in delicious gourmet Alaska fashion. Enjoy reading our Alaska Fishing Report, Cooking Alaska Fish & Game, Alaska Photo of the Week and other sections of our website The Alaska Dream and we hope to have the chance to help you experience YOUR Alaska Dream someday too!
