Alaskan Fishing and Trapping Adventures
















There were a few more fishing and trapping adventures worth mentioning from our Alaska trip...Gordon and I floated the Kenai River in his river drift boat, the "Seam Robber", fishing for rainbow trout. There is no better reminder of how controlled and unhealthy the rivers in the lower 48 are, than a float trip down winding, swirling, vibrant bends and seams of the Kenai.
















The fishing on the Kenai was not spectacular for Alaska standards but the trip was still amazing.

On the trapping end of things...Owen and I did a little squirrel trapping on the day he had a sleep-over up on the hill. We initially just wanted to see if we could catch one but then Grandpa said he wanted us to give the squirrel a new home, down the road.


What would a blog post be without a Xander photo, so here is a parting shot.
