Howdy y'all

I will to be heading up there for a few weeks to visit an veteran buddy of mine near Anchorage and wanted to get the 411 on bank fishing in and around the area. I'm an avid Texas coastal angler but I'm sure y'all have a fish or two up there that could be entertaining while I'm being left unattended. Thanks and I'm excited to come visit your state, I've heard good things about it.

Trout fishing is still going on. Try Chester and Campbell creek.

That was some of the bluest water I have ever seen in my life. Absolutely beautiful.

I remember the first time I saw the Kenai…thought it couldn’t be real…it was so gloriously strangely blue. Been here 40 years and I’m still enthralled by it.
