Chilkoot River Fly Fishing

We had a fun morning fly fishing on the Chilkoot River! Not being a fishing person myself, I was mainly hoping that where there are salmon, there may be bears. I enjoyed learning to fly fish and found it very peaceful being out on the river enjoying the incredible scenery and babbling river sounds. Being the incredibly graceful person that I am, I fell into the river twice while wading to new spots, making for some very cold and numb feet by the end of it all. But it was all worth it since I caught fish! I was surprised with how strong they were and how difficult they were to hold onto for photos! The guide took Keanan's fish photos so we're still waiting on those. To top it all off, a bear came to join us at the end! He seemed completely unconcerned with our presence - I guess we weren't threatening his salmon supply much!Read more
