I’m ready to move on to another area to try to find Coho Salmon. However, I think I must check out Centennial Park this evening as a small run came through last night. Puttering during the day, and not having been to the town of Kenai, a quick 5-10 mile drive was taken. And, what…

I had the normal start-getting-going around 1:30 today. I puttered, then headed out to Centennial Park to see if more Coho were being caught today. I saw 4 landed in about 45 minutes so I headed out in my boots, as I’m lazy, and tried fishing from shore. Unfortunately, flipping a large bb-shot weight has…

I have to say that the bait fishermen here at Centennial Park in Soldotna know how to make waiting for a bite quite enjoyable. Note the tent. Under it are tables filled with food, and everyone has a nice chair to sit in, to eat while waiting for a fish to bite their soaking roe….

Sleeping in and puttering all day. As Always. During the day the fishing area at Centennial Park in Soldotna is taken up by bait fishermen, with rods spaced anywhere from 10 to 25 feet away. Regardless, I would not be able to get in to do a Kenai Flip until spaces open up in the…

Things get out of whack when uploading posts, from memory, for a few days in the past. I write this blog like I’m writing it on the actual day, because it is not a good idea for people to know where one actually is when travelling (except my children who get GPS updates on my…

I slept in. Big Surprise. Then I drove into Homer to pay my bills for the month and get my energy back after hanging out in my van for almost a day. I ran errands, stocked up on supplies, and took pictures of Homer. Oh yeah, it rained all night and the Anchor River came…

Well, I goofed up yesterday when I got to the Anchor River. I thought high tide was at 11 PM, but it was at 4:30 PM. I could have fished. I realized later that I didn’t want to fish at 9 to 12 PM, so I went to bed early. I woke up at 10…

I made it down to Anchor Point today, and dropped into the Anchor Point Fly Shop. Brian, the manager? owner?, was geared up with a buddy and just about to leave to hunt Steelhead. I told him that I was ready to go out for Silvers this evening when high tide was at 11 PM….

After driving down to Soldotna I had to check out the fishing action at Centennial Park. There were a handful of people fishing, and I saw about 4 or 5 salmon being carried up into the parking lot while I was there. I checked in at Mossy’s Fly Shop in Anchorage on my way down,…

I spent two hours traveling the prettier 26 miles of the Denali Highway. My camera batteries were dead last night, so the photos posted yesterday were taken with my phone. I charged the camera over night, took many photos with the idea that if I take 100 photos, 1 or 2 might come out great….
