Have a trip to Montana and Wyoming next month including a float boat outing with one of our grads. Bought a 5 weight outfit. May have to use it here for bream.

Very nice cape man, enjoy the trip and cool temps and waters. When you get back that should be big enough for sea trout. :D Using that on poor little bream would be overkill. :lol: Unless your bream weigh more than the 3/4lb ones I catch. :lol:

Visiting my wife's family in Ketchikan, currently out on my father in law's boat. I have some YouTube gold once I put the clips together and edit out the swear words. F.I.L. won a tug-of-war with a sea lion over a coho. :lol:

I’m guessing the sea lions and seals are the tax man of your waters.

Bring it on!

I fished the Kichatna R a few years ago for Coho - a great adventure!

I have to figure out how to use the editing software again. The salmon was surprisingly intact once it was landed.... Usually when a sea lion gets ahold of one it is shredded but only the rearmost parts of the filets had to be trimmed off. Sea lion was pissed off and continued to circle the boat. Finally we brought in the rest of the gear and moved elsewhere.
