The warm weather is melting alot of the snow in the higher elevations that is filling the Little Susitna River and is getting muddier every day. We did have some rain showers this afternoon, it was welcomed. After being in the sun all day, the cool air and rain cooled us off.

We had 2 trips in the morning and 2 trips in the afternoon.
The morning trips had some action, however, no fish were landed. A few were caught, fought with but they succeeded to release themselves.
On one of the afternoon trips, we had a catch n release and a catch n keep.
Ben, from B.C., caught his Alaska king salmon. It was a little smaller than the usual king we catch, but it was bright and had sea lice all over it. It was to pretty a fish to release.
It's going to be some good eating!
It's amazing how the catching changes daily, but we are still having some beautiful weather.
Don't forget your sunscreen.

The Alaska weather was amazing. The clients were great.
However, the fish did not cooperate today.
We fished 3 morning trips and fished 2 afternoon trips for the Alaska King Salmon,
and not even a bite!
The start of the season was outstanding and we are confident that the fishing will pick up.
There were many boats on the river and only 2 anglers of all the people fishing the
Little Susitna River, caught their Alaska King Salmon.
It is somewhat normal to have days like this in the beginning of the Alaska King Salmon Season.

For Wasilla, Alaska ~ Partly cloudy. Isolated rain showers in the afternoon with isolated
thunderstorms along the mountains. Highs in the mid to upper 60s. Southwest wind
to 10 mph.
The weather has been OUTSTANDING here in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley
of South Central, Alaska.
We fished the Little Susitna River this morning and got the opportunity to hook onto 2
Alaska King Salmon.
The first Alaska King Salmon was a line peeling experience. Unfortunately the fish through the hook at the boat. The second hookup was short lived and the fish played with the lure
then got bored, and left.
The Alaska King Salmon are starting to show up more and more each day. The water level on the Little Susitna is rising and starting to look like Alaska Salmon Waters, FINALLY.

It took him about 15-20 minutes to being this beauty in.

For Wasilla, Alaska ~ The highs got into the mid 70's today.The weather has been absolutely wonderful the passed week. The water level on Alaska's Little Susitna is rising allowing the Alaska King Salmon to easier enter the river from the Upper Cook Inlet that comes up along Anchorage, Alaska.
We went fishing today on the Little Susitna and saw Alaska King Salmon doing their acrobatics around us.The moose are very active this time of year in Alaska, due to the cows calving and trying to keep them calves safe from harm. We saw a day old calf coming down to the river along with it's mother.
Even though the fish were taunting us, without biting, it was still a great day on the water.
