Hard to catch fish when bears are everywhere. Think we saw ten of them. One shared a sandbar with me for a few seconds while I slowly backed into the river to put some distance between us. He was les than 20 feet from me. Wish I had the camera out for that one. They really had no interest in us though. So many fish caucuses around us. That’s all they wanted. They would grab them out of the river then run back into the trees. We don’t worry about black bears. People were talking about two brown bears that were there last night. Those scare me.
Lucas trying his hand at fly fishing. The “flip and floss” is not your usual technique for fishing but it’s what we do here for reds. This ultra light rod proved too light for these fish.

This has been my most animal filled trip, probably ever. Would love to see a brown bear still….
